Abstract
TiO2 and Fe-doped TiO2 thin films were prepared on the substrates (glass plates and glass microballs) after dipped in colloid and calcined at 500°C. The films have been characterized by UV-absorption, x-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The investigated Fe-doped TiO2 (A nominal 10 wt% Fe2O3 was impregnated) thin films were obtained by sol-gel method. The characterization results suggest that the calcined thin films primarily consist of TiO2 anatase. And the light absorption curve of the TiO2 films modified with Fe showed that red shift had happened by the dope of Fe. TiO2/beads as photocatalyst were used to degrade the simulated dyeing water which contains reactive deep-blue dye (K-R). Through the degradation experiment, we found that the dope of Fe promoted the photocatalytic activities. The results showed that the dyeing water can be decomposed more effectively by the photocatalytic oxidation of Fe/TiO2 film on glass micro-balls than glass plates.
