Abstract

Lanthanum doped 1D-TiO2 nanomaterials (nanorods and nanotubes) with tuned structural and textural properties have been evaluated in the photocatalytic degradation of formic acid (FA) under UV conditions. La-doped nanorods and nanotubes calcined at 973K show interesting photocatalytic properties with respect to La-free nanomaterials. The presence of La inhibits TiO2 crystallite growth and increases the lifetime of photo-generated electron–hole pairs.
