Artigo IPEN-doc 27557 Visible-light photocatalytic activity and recyclability of N-doped TiO2 films grown by MOCVD2020 - OLIVEIRA, E.C. de; BENTO, R.T.; CORREA, O.V.; PILLIS, M.F.Nitrogen-doped TiO2 films were grown on borosilicate glass substrates at 400 °C by the metallorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) for removing dye from water under visible light. The effect of N-doping on the structural, surface, and photocatalytic properties of films was evaluated. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses revealed that 1.56 and 2.44 at% of nitrogen were incorporated into the films by varying the NH3 flux during the growth. Methyl orange dye degradation experiments showed that the N-doped films presented photoactivity under visible light. The film containing 2.44 at% of nitrogen exhibited the best photocatalytic behavior, with 55% of efficiency. Recyclability tests under visible light showed that the film efficiency dropped gradually after each test. N-TiO2 films grown by MOCVD have the potential to be used in environmental applications by removing pollutants using a green method under sunlight or even under internal illumination, although its reuse is limited.Artigo IPEN-doc 25006 Characterization and photocatalytic behavior of TiO2 thin films grown by MOCVD process2017 - BENTO, RODRIGO T.; OLIVEIRA, EDUARDO C. de; SZURKALO, MARGARIDA; CORREA, OLANDIR V.; PILLIS, MARINA F.This research aims to evaluate the influence of the thickness on the photocatalytic behavior of TiO2 thin films grown at 400ºC by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Titanium dioxide films with 280 and 468 nm of thickness were grown on borosilicate substrates. The photocatalytic behavior was evaluated by monitoring the degradation of methyl orange dye under UV light for 2h. The results show that both films presented anatase crystalline phase and that increasing the thickness the grain size and the roughness were also increased. The best photocatalytic performance was attributed to the film of 468 nm of thickness that exhibited 40% of dye degradation after 2h under UV light.Artigo IPEN-doc 24951 Morphological characterization of N-doped TiO2 thin films2017 - OLIVEIRA, EDUARDO C. de; SZURKALO, MARGARIDA; CORREA, OLANDIR V.; BENTO, RODRIGO T.; PILLIS, MARINA F.Metallorganic chemical vapor deposition was used to grown TiO2 and N-doped TiO2 on borosilicate substrates at 400°C. Titanium isopropoxide IV was used as titanium and oxygen precursors and ammonia as nitrogen source. Analyses by atomic force microscopy showed that both films presented rounded well-defined grains. The results showed that nitrogen doping resulted in a decrease in the mean grain size and in the surface roughness.
