Metal oxide photocatalysts loaded with metal species are extremely important in photocatalysis. The physicochemical states of metal species, as well as the interaction between metal species and support, determine the transfer of charge carriers between the heterointerface, which has a significant impact on photocatalytic activity. Here, we prepared anatase TiO nanosheets (TIO) modified with different Ag species, including single atoms, clusters, and nanoparticles, using a ligand-mediated method.

The use of metal single atoms (SAs) as co-catalysts on semiconductors has emerged as a promising technology to enhance their photocatalytic hydrogen production performance. In this study, we describe the deposition of very low amounts of Pt SAs (<0.1 at%) on exfoliated graphitic carbon nitride (C3N4) by a direct Pt-deposition approach from highly dilute chloroplatinic acid precursors.

A Cu-TiO nanomaterial with unique antibacterial and photocatalytic properties is introduced in this study. Cu-TiO nanocomposites were obtained using an adapted direct current magnetron sputtering apparatus, where TiO anatase nanoparticles (NPs) were used as the substrates and copper as the sputtering target. The obtained powder was characterized by physical and chemical methods.

The resuscitation of bacteria through biofilms presents a critical challenge in controlling microbial pathogenesis and addressing antimicrobial resistance. Continuous antibiofilm activity, particularly on frequently contacted surfaces, is therefore critical. In this study, a scalable is introduced, one-step fabrication of FeO/AgBr nanoimprints using a polymerizable sol-gel (PSG) approach to create functional nanostructured thin films with strong antimicrobial properties.

Hypothesis: The small size of the nanoparticles used to obtain high surface area photocatalysts makes their removal from solution difficult. Producing photocatalysts on substrates would alleviate this limitation. Adding heterojunctions to photocatalysts, for example, TiO/Ag, could improve photocatalytic performance due to Schottky junction formation and introduce antibacterial properties.
