In this study, high-frequency MnZn ferrites are prepared for power applications at 10 MHz using solid-state reaction method. The sample doped with 3000 ppm TiO 2 yields the optimal comprehensive magnetic properties , with an initial permeability of 792, power loss of 415 kW/m 3 (10 MHz, 5 mT, 25 ℃), and saturation induction of 460 mT. This indicates significant progress compared to previously reported results. The mechanisms of property optimisation, microstructure and domain structure evolution also discussed with TiO 2 doping. The precipitation of Ti at the grain boundary can promote a high-density microstructure and favour the formation of magnetic monodomain in MnZn ferrites. Our results elucidate the correlations between microstructure, domain structure, and high-frequency performance, and present a potential roadmap for the development of high-frequency soft magnetic ferrites.

Ti-doped α-Fe2O3 nanorods were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method, followed by a NiFe-LDH catalyst that was electrodeposited on the doped α-Fe2O3 nanorods to structure an integrating photoanode Ti:Fe2O3/NiFe-LDH for improving solar PEC water-splitting efficiency. The structure and properties of electrode materials were characterized and the PEC properties of photoanodes were measured. The results show that the photocurrent density of the photoanode enhances 11.25 times at 1.23 V (vs RHE) and the IPCE value enhances 4.10 times at 420 nm compared with pristine α-Fe2O3. The enhancement is attributed to the separating of photogenerated electron–hole, the increase of carrier density, and the acceleration of the carrier transfer rate due to the dual action of doping and catalysis.

In this paper, we present the fabrication of Ti-doped α-Fe2O3 and surface treatment with Al3+ for application as a photoanode in photoelectrochemical water splitting. The Ti-doped α-Fe2O3 with Al3+ treatment shows a 100 mV cathodic shift of the onset potential and a notable improvement of the photocurrent density. The samples were characterized by SEM, TEM, HRTEM, XRD, Raman, UV-vis and XPS to obtain the information after surface treatment. Based on electrochemistry and photoelectrochemistry techniques, it appears that surface treatment with Al3+ passivates the surface states and decreases the accumulation of charge at the surface of Ti–Fe2O3. The results show that Ti-doped Fe2O3 with Al3+ surface treatment can be used as an efficient photoanode for photoelectrochemical water splitting.

In this study, the effect of Ti doping ratio on Ti/Ga co-doped ZnO (TGZ) nanopowders was investigated. TGZ nanoparticles with different Ti loadings were prepared using the sol-gel method and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV-Vis), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and photoluminescence (PL). The results show that when the Ti doping content is low (0.25at%–1at%), all TGZ samples are single-phase and have the same wurtzite structure as pure ZnO, and when the Ti doping content is high (1.5at%–6at%), a second phase appears, which is the Zn 2 TiO 4 inverse spinel phase. When the doping is low, Ti and Ga can replace the position of Zn, the particle size of ZnO is reduced, the absorption of visible light is enhanced, and the catalytic degradation ability is improved. When the powder is highly doped, the shape distortion of the powder is obvious, and the crystal changes from single-phase to multi-phase, but the absorption of visible light is enhanced, and the recombination of electron-hole pairs is reduced. Through the MB degradation experiment, it was found that T 1.5 G 1.5 Z had the strongest degradation ability, and the degradation rate reached 96% in 150 min. With the further doping of Ti, the degradation rate remained at a high level.

Effectively regulating and promoting the charge separation and transfer of photoanodes is a key and challenging aspect of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. Herein, a Ti-doped hematite photoanode with a CoFe-LDH cocatalyst loaded on the surface was prepared through a series of processes, including hydrothermal treatment, annealing and electrodeposition. The prepared CoFe-LDH/Ti:α-Fe2O3photoanode exhibited an outstanding photocurrent density of 3.06 mA/cm2at 1.23 VRHE, which is five times higher than that of α-Fe2O3alone. CoFe-LDH modification and Ti doping on hematite can boost the surface charge transfer efficiency, which is mainly attributed to the interface interaction between CoFe-LDH and Ti:α-Fe2O3. Furthermore, we investigated the role of Ti doping in enhancing the PEC performance of CoFe-LDH/Ti:α-Fe2O3. A series of characterizations and theoretical calculations revealed that, in addition to improving the electronic conductivity of the bulk material, Ti doping also further enhances the interface coupling of CoFe-LDH/α-Fe2O3and finely regulates the interfacial electronic structure. These changes promote the rapid extraction of holes from hematite and facilitate charge separation and transfer. The informative findings presented in this work provide valuable insights for the design and construction of hematite photoanodes, offering guidance for achieving excellent performance in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation.

Ti-doped ZnO (TZO) and Bi2O3thin films were designed and deposited by magnetron sputtering successively on ITO glass substrate to form a Ti-doped ZnO/Bi2O3(TZO/Bi2O3) heterojunction. Microstructure and photoelectric properties of TZO, Bi2O3, and TZO/Bi2O3films were tested and characterized. The results showed that TZO film with a hexagonal wurtzite structure was preferentially grown along the crystal plane (002), had a good crystallization state, and was an N-type semiconductor film with high transmittance (90%) and low resistivity (4.68 × 10−3Ω·cm). However, the Bi2O3film sputtered in an oxygen-containing atmosphere and was a polycrystalline film that was preferentially grown along the crystal plane (111). It had a lower crystallization quality than TZO film and was a P-type semiconductor film with low transmittance (68%) and high resistance (1.71 × 102Ω·cm). The I–V curve of TZO/Bi2O3composite films showed that it had an obvious heterojunction rectification effect, which indicates that the PN heterojunction successfully formed in TZO/Bi2O3films.Keywords:TZO film;Bi2O3film;TZO/Bi2O3heterojunction;magnetron sputtering;optoelectronic properties

Due to the excessive use, cephalosporin antibiotics have been detected in various aquatic environments, which may result in environmental and health concern. In this study, bimetallic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), Hf-UiO-66 and Ti-UiO-66, were successfully designed and obtained via post-synthetic method from UiO-66 for the adsorption of cefoperazone. A serious of adsorption experiments were investigated. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms demonstrated that the adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. Hf/Ti-UiO-66 exhibited much better adsorption performance than the undoped UiO-66. Particularly, Hf-UiO-66 had the highest adsorption capacity (346.0 mg g −1 ). With the introduction of Hf or Ti, the chemical coordination environment changed, which resulted in defective structures of MOFs. Such defective structures increased the adsorption active sites, changed the surface charges and enlarged pores. Based on the characterization by FT-IR, XPS, and zeta potential, it was identified that the electrostatic attraction, π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding and metal complexation were the driving force for the high adsorption capacity of the bimetallic MOFs. The as-prepared MOFs displayed good stability and reusability. This work provides a great prospect for the design and application of bimetallic defective MOFs in cephalosporins removal in environmental water.

The development of polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysis of water is mainly limited by the high cost of noble metals and inadequate stability owing to the slow reaction kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction and the restrictions of strongly acidic operating environments. To improve the utilization of noble metals, we use Ti-doped SnO2 as a carrier to support active species IrO2. The results show that the introduction of Ti element can inhibit the grain growth and help to improve the electrical conductivity of SnO2. Electrochemical tests for the catalysts show that 40 wt % IrO2/TSO has the best mass-normalized charge (231.24 C g–1 IrO2) and current density (714.85 A g–1 IrO2) at 1.6 V with the overpotential of only 271 mV at 10 mA cm–2, which is attributed to the outstanding dispersion effect of Ti-doped SnO2 and the synergy between the active species and the introduction of Ti element. The comprehensive advantages exhibited by the Ti-doped SnO2 support provide an alternative solution to reduce the cost of noble metal catalysts by improving the catalytic activity and stability.

The electronic evolution of doped Mott insulators has been extensively studied for decades in search of exotic physical phases. The proposed Mott insulator 1 T -TaS 2 provides an intriguing platform to study the electronic evolution via doping. Here we apply scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) to study the evolution in Ti-doped 1 T -TaS 2 at different doping levels. The doping Ti atom locally perturbs the electronic and spin state inside the doped star of David and induces a clover-shaped orbital texture at low-doping levels ( x < 0.01). The insulator to metal transition occurs around a critical point x = 0.01, in which small metallic and large insulating domains coexist. The clover-shaped orbital texture emerges at a broader energy range, revealing a competition with the electron correlation. It transforms to a disorder-induced Anderson insulating behavior as doping increases. We directly visualize the trapped electrons in d I / d V conductance maps. The comprehensive study of the series of Ti-doped 1 T -TaS 2 deepens our understanding of the electronic state evolution in a doped strong-correlated system.

Ti-doped α-Fe2O3 nanorods (NRs) with carbon layer coating were fabricated for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. The α-Fe2O3 NRs were grown on the surface of a Ti foil substrate by hydrothermal synthesis. Ti4+ was diffused from the Ti substrate and doped into the α-Fe2O3 NRs by sintering at 800 °C. The presence of Fe2+ in the α-Fe2O3 lattice was achieved by annealing the NRs in a lack of oxygen atmosphere, e.g. in argon. The co-existence of Ti4+ and Fe2+ results in significant enhancement of the PEC performance compared with the hematite NRs obtained by annealing in air, showing the absence of Fe2+. The carbon layer coating was conducted by the carbonization of glucose. Impressively, the coated carbon layer can not only facilitate the charge transfer of the photogenerated carriers but also effectively restrain the structural aggregation of the NRs upon high temperature sintering. The carbon layer coated NRs exhibited 1.2 times higher photocurrent density than the uncoated NRs due to the reduced charge recombination and well-distinct NR structures.

Ti-doped polymer-derived SiOC ceramic has multi-functional sensing capability due to its semiconductive properties. Their mechanical and chemical stability provide reliable support for their long-term service and safe operation in extreme environments. The sensing properties of Ti-doped SiOC (SiTiOC) can be optimized by modulation carrier concentration. Meanwhile, it can be fabricated by 3D printing as structural-strengthened components, promising for abnormal environmental signals warning under harsh conditions. In this work, SiTiOC gyroid structures were constructed by vat photopolymerization. The resulting components had thermistor characteristics with a negative temperature coefficient . After the Ti doping, the structures exhibited a high conductivity of 1.10 S/m, as the Ti ions formed an efficient percolation network by introducing acceptor impurities. The structures also had piezoresistive capability as the conductive phases can generate a tunneling-percolation conduction effect. They can detect a strain of less than 0.5%. Furthermore, the structures can realize n-butanol sensing for their p-type semiconductor properties . The components also had an excellent mechanical performance with the compressive strength and Young's modulus of 92.83 MPa and 4.28 GPa, respectively, ensuring reliable service under pressure loading.

Developing effective and stable catalysts for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x remains challenging. Herein, we constructed a hierarchical structure by loading CoMn 2 O 4 onto Ti-doped CeO 2 , that CoMn 2 O 4 /CeTiO x catalyst has shown superior deNO x activity (>95% at 100–225 °C), prominent reaction activation energy (28.8 ± 0.9 kJ mol −1 ) and outstanding stability (>75% at 100–200 °C within H 2 O and SO 2 ). The “low-temperature active sites” and “dual anti-poisoning sites” contribute to excellent activity and stability. Firstly, the hierarchical structure boosts generation of active metal-support interface, which is conducive to oxygen migration (including adsorbed oxygen (O ads ), lattice oxygen (O lat ) and oxygen vacancy (O v )) and metal charge transfer (Mn 2+/3+ +Ce 4+ ↔Mn 3+/4+ +Ce 3+ , Ti 4+ +Ce 3+ ↔Ce 4+ +Ti 3+ ). This is the key to breaking through the limits of catalytic activity stability. Secondly, enhanced surface acidity favors NH 3 adsorption and activation, which accelerates -NH 2 /-NH concatenate with NO x through Eley-Rideal mechanism to generate N 2 and H 2 O. Thirdly, the dual strong SO 2 affinity sites by Ti-induced CeO 2 crystal reconstruction retard the active center affected by the sulfate species, which contributes to striking stability. This work highlights the importance of design of isolated active sites to improve SO 2 and H 2 O endurance.
