  • Abstract
    TiO2 particles or casted thin films are treated with plasma CVD using the mixture of tantalum alkoxide and nitrogen gas or copper(II) acetylacetonate to improve the photocatalyst activities of TiO2 irradiated by visible light. The layer formed on the surface of the TiO2 after plasma treatment is composed of some species characterized by XPS measurement. The visible-light activity are shown after the plasma CVD treatment to the surface of TiO2.
