Summary, etc. |
<strong>A simple, inexpensive and one-step synthesis route of Ag-TiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles by arc discharge method has been reported. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized by using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction patterns demonstrate dominance of rutile to anatase phase in TiO<sub>2</sub> and formation of silver metal onTiO<sub>2 </sub>after arc discharge process. Scanning electron microscopy images exhibit the increase of reduced nanoparticles in 5 min arc duration as compared with 1 min arc duration. Photodegradation of methyl orange as a standard pollutant shows that the presence of silver in TiO<sub>2</sub> was found to enhance the photocatalytic activity. The high activity of silver doped TiO<sub>2</sub> is due to the enhancement of electron-hole separation by the electron trapping of silver particles.</strong> |
