High visible-light active Ir-doped-TiO2 brookite photocatalyst synthesized by hydrothermal microwave-assisted process [PDF]
Iridium-doped TiO2 having a brookite phase was synthesized as a visible light-active photocatalyst. It was prepared by using a hydrothermal assisted-microwave process as an improved competitive production method over the traditional hydrothermal process.
