The effect of the deposition parameters on size, distribution and antimicrobial properties of photoinduced silver nanoparticles on titania coatings

A review on plasmonic metal⿿TiO2 composite for generation, trapping, storing and dynamic vectorial transfer of photogenerated electrons across the Schottky junction in a photocatalytic system

“…The positive antibacterial behavior under UV light is a synergistic effect between nano Ag and TiO 2 . In the dark, nano Ag plays an active role in antibacterial behavior and TiO 2 nanotubes serve as good carrier support for nano Ag [139]. Therefore Ag/TiO 2 nanotube arrays suited well for endo-prosthetic applications due to their excellent antibacterial activities in the dark.…”

Photocatalytical decoration of thin titania coatings with silver nanostructures provides a robust and reproducible SERS signal

“…Moreover, parameters such as the intensity of applied light source and the amount of hole scavengers were also examined. Similar experiments aimed at the determination of the effect of the type of light source, the kind of TiO 2 coating (magnetron or solgel) on the size, and the quantity of resulting AgNSs were performed earlier and described in our previous works . To our knowledge, these factors, crucial for the generation of electrons and formation of metal nanostructures, have not been systematically examined so far in terms of SERS investigations.…”

Superfícies fotocatalíticas de titânia em substratos cerâmicos: Parte I: Síntese, estrutura e fotoatividade

“…O dióxido de titânio também pode ser sinterizado em laboratório. A técnica mais utilizada é sol-gel a partir de um precursor como tetraisopropóxido de titânio [17][18][19][20][21][22] ou tetracloreto de titânio [23,24]. A utilização do tetraisopropóxido de titânio (Ti-i-pr, Ti(OCH(CH 3 ) 2 ) 4 ) como precursor é mais referenciada, na qual sóis aquosos de Ti-i-pr são obtidos a partir da peptização e hidrólise de Ti-i-pr usando água destilada.…”
