To study the mechanism of the photo-thermochemical cycle (PTC), titanium dioxide (ST) and Ni-doped TiO₂(NT) films were produced using a sol-gel method and applied in the PTC for CO₂ reduction.And commercial P25(PT) has been used as a compared sample.A comparison of CO production shows that Ni-doped TiO₂ performed better than undoped TiO₂ and P25.Average CO production of NT PTCs was 5.30 μmol/g-cat and it was nearly 3.13 times of ST PTCs'CO production and 2.28 times of PT PTCs'.Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to assess the crystal structure and morphology of the films.Ni element could be found in NT by EDXS and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), and the mass fraction of Ni was 0.54% and 0.436% which were agreed with experiments.This result of XRD indicated that Ni²⁺ may have high dispersion without significant change in TiO₂ and Ni²⁺ ions were doped into the TiO₂ lattice so that Ni-O-Ti bonds were formed.Photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved PL, UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-visible DRS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses were also conducted to investigate the charge transfer and reaction mechanisms on the sample surface.The incorporation of Ni into TiO₂ resulted in a weaker PL intensity than that of bare TiO₂, which suggests that the introduction of Ni into TiO₂ effectively suppressed the undesirable recombination of electrons and holes.According to UV-visible DRS results, the Eg of PT is approximately 3.07 eV, which is smaller than that of ST (E_g=3.23 eV) and PT (E_g=3.20 eV).The narrower band gap of NT indicates that NT absorbed light with a wider wavelength range than that absorbed by ST and PT.By XPS patterns, the increase of Ni^+/0 and Ti³⁺ indicated that the VO may have been produced on the bond of Ni-O-Ti after UV illumination, and oxygen vacancies (VO) have been consumed after thermal step in PTC.Density functional theory (DFT) calculations related to the anatase (101) surface of TiO₂ and Ni doped TiO₂ was performed to verify and provide guidance for enhancing the PTC mechanism.Single and second VO formation energy have been calculated.The Ni-doped surface exhibits better performance than the undoped surface in the first step in PTC, because of its lower V_O formation energy which produce more V_O sites.Density of states (DOS) and partial density of states (PDOS) results indicated that narrow energy gap and impurity energy level of Ni-doped TiO₂ may lead to a wider wavelength range of NT.As a result, several key factors of the mechanism have been clarified.
- photo-thermal synergy,
- CO₂ conversion,
- oxygen vacancy,
- Ni substituted doping,
- DFT calculation
