Abstract
Pure ZnO thin films and Ag doped ZnO thin films were prepared on quartz substrates by sol-gel process. Structural features and UV absorption spectrum have been studied by XRD and UV-Vis-Nir scanning spectrophotometer. Taking phenol as pollutants, further study of the effect of different annealing temperature and Ag dopant amount of ZnO films on photocatalytic properties was carried out. The results showed that, the optimal annealing temperature on photocatalytic degradation of phenol in this experiment was 300 °C, the best molar ratio of ZnO and Ag was 30:1, which was better than pure ZnO film greatly. Excellent adhesion, recyclable and efficient degradation Ag doped ZnO thin films were found in this experiment.
