Cu-TiO2 Hybrid Nanoparticles Exhibiting Tunable Photochromic Behavior
Pure and copper modified photocatalytic TiO2 nanopowders were prepared via a green sol−gel route and heated to 450 °C. Copper does not enter the TiO2 lattice but forms as smaller ∼2 nm Cu based nanocrystals, decorating the surface of ∼10 nm TiO2 nanoparticles. The surface of the larger TiO2 nanopart...
