摘要: Abstract Iron- and europium-doped (≤1 at.%) TiO 2 nanoparticles powders have been synthesized by a hydrothermal route at 200 °C, starting with TiCl 4 , FeCl 3 ·6H O EuCl O. The structure, morphology optical peculiarities were investigated means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), extended absorption fine structure (EXAFS), Mossbauer spectroscopy UV–vis measurements. photocatalytic performance was analysed in the photodegradation reaction phenol. Rietveld refinements XRD patterns reveal that as-prepared samples consist iron- tetragonal anatase structural shape, particle size as low 15 nm. By on both 57 Fe 151 Eu isotopes well EXAFS analyses, presence 3+ and/or ions nanosized has evidenced. It found iron europium can substitute for titanium structure. From reflection spectra, using transformed Kubelka–Munk functions, band gap energy ( E g ) determined comparison Degussa P-25 photocatalyst. A decrease from 2.9 eV photocatalyst to 2.8 eV titania doped 1 at.% evidenced, indicating valuable shift (∼20 nm) towards visible light region. However, best activity phenol evidenced sample, : Fe, 0.5 at.% Eu, UV regions. activities iron-doped iron–europium-codoped are high practically same only light. properties correlation discussed.
