    The Effect of Powder Preparation Method on the Artificial Photosynthesis Activities of Neodymium Doped Titania Powders
    (Elsevier, 2018) Yurtsever, Hüsnü Arda; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin
    The effects of nanostructure on the artificial photosynthesis activities of undoped and Nd doped titania (TiO2) powders prepared by three different chemical co-precipitation methods were investigated. Substitutional/interstitial N and S doping was observed in powders due to the presence of high concentrations of HNO3 (NP) and H2SO4 (SP) in the powder preparation media, respectively. Nd, N and S doping caused anatase/rutile phase transformation inhibition and crystallite size reduction in the nanostructure. Light absorption was significantly enhanced by Nd doping and the residual SO42-/NOx species in the nanostructure. Photocatalytic hydrogen production activity of Nd doped NP powder was 4 times greater than undoped NP powder at 700 degrees C and had a high purity (CO:H-2 ratio similar to 0.00). CO was determined to be the main product in photocatalytic CO2 reduction. NP powders had the highest CO yields and Nd doping enhanced CO production. The powders with high crystallite sizes and rutile weight fractions had the highest artificial photosynthesis activities. (C) 2018 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

    The Effect of Rare Earth Element Doping on the Microstructural Evolution of Sol-Gel Titania Powders
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Yurtsever, Hüsnü Arda; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin
    The development of a better understanding of the low temperature nanophase evolution of high surface area titania (TiO2) based powders is essential for their use in photocatalytic applications. A series of rare earth (RE) element doped TiO2 powders were prepared by sol-gel processing. The effects of RE doping level, ionic size and heat treatment temperature on the nanophase structure evolution and the dopant ion location in TiO2 main matrix were investigated. Anatase was determined to be the main phase up to 900 °C at all doping levels for all REs. Anatase to rutile phase transformation was inhibited by RE doping. The inhibitory effect of REs increased with increasing ionic radius. Oxide phases of La, Nd, Pr, Sm were not present up to 5% and Nd4Ti9O24 phase was formed at 10% doping level at 800 °C. The formation of RE2Ti2O7 phases were determined for the REs with relatively lower ionic radii at 800 °C.
