TiO2 Inverse Opals Modified by Ag Nanoparticles: A Synergic Effect of Enhanced Visible-Light Absorption and Efficient Charge Separation for Visible-Light Photocatalysis

This work reports on the synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic performance of the TiO2 inverse opal nanostructure (IP-TiO2) and the IP-TiO2 modified by Ag nanoparticles (Ag@IP-TiO2). The IP-TiO2 is fabricated using polystyrene spheres as the template and TiCl4 as the precursor, and the Ag@...
