应用常温搅拌法合成质子钛酸盐,在不同的温度下煅烧生成TiO2纳米晶.X射线衍射、透射电镜、扫描电镜、紫外-可见光谱、光电压~电流和交流阻抗测试,表明500℃煅烧下制备的TiO2纳米晶表现出较好的光电性能,转换效率达到6.39%.
The protonated titanate nanoparticles were obtained at room temperature and subsequently calcined at different temperatures(300 ℃,400 ℃,500 ℃,600 ℃ and 700 ℃) in air.The obtained products were characterized by XRD,TEM and UV-Vis.It is found that the grain sizes of TiO2 nanoparticles calcined at 300 ℃ were about 20 nm,and increased gradually with the temperature rise.Photoelectric performance was measured with I～V curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).The TiO2 nanoparticles obtained at 500 ℃ showed the best photoelectrochemical properties with a photovoltaic conversion efficiency of 6.39%,which is much higher than those at other temperatures.In addition,it is also demonstrated that the charge transfer resistance of TiO2 nanoparticles obtained at 500 ℃ was much smaller.
