الوصف: | Modulation of surface acid sites (SAS) can effectively enhance the efficiency of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in recent. However, the role of SAS has been neglected for photo-reduction reactions. Here, we report a Lewis acid site (L-acid) rich TiO2 prepared by synergistic effect of ethanol and halogen ions. The formation of L-acid improves the adsorption and mobility of O2, which facilitates to be reduced into superoxide radical (·O2-). L-acid may lift the population of photogenerated electrons (e-), which is concluded from the presence of ·CH3 signal in DMPO-·O2- ESR of only L-acid rich TiO2. In addition, L-acid enhances the migration of photogenerated holes (h+) to the surface of catalyst, which induces a continuous photo-oxidation reaction of H2O or -OH. Therefore, L-acid simultaneously enhances the photo-redox ROS generation reaction, resulting in higher photocatalytic activity. This work illustrates a dual function of L-acid and provides a useful strategy for improving the photocarriers separation and surface reaction efficiency. |
