In-situ oxygen vacancy-mediated C-N-S-tridoped single crystal black TiO 2 (B) nanorods are smoothly manufactured. The sample preparation is divided into two steps, first of all, a simple hydrothermal process, followed by an in-situ solid-state chemical substitution method with calcination at 500 °C. We have a number of representations of the catalyst such as crystallinity, morphological structure, etc. by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, respectively. This b-C-N-S-TiO 2 (B) has the advantages of Oxygen Vacancy, single crystal structure of nanorods, Ti 3+ self-doping, C-N-S-tridoped, so this sample band gap is narrow. Moreover, through the reduction of phenol and Cr(VI), we know the photocatalytic performance of the b-C-N-S-TiO 2 (B), the reduction efficiency of phenol and Cr(VI) is ∼6.1 times and ∼7 times of no doping samples, respectively, under visible light illumination. The predominant photocatalytic performances because of the synergetic action of Ti 3+ self-doping, C-N-S-tridoped, oxygen vacancy, and the 1D single crystal B phase nanostructure, favoring the separation and transportation of photogenerated charge carriers and the visible light utilization.

TiO2-B nanorods, with excellent properties including large specific surface area, open structures with significant voids, and continuous channels, were explored for the first time in the photoelectrochemical biosensing field. To reduce the destructive effect of UV light on biomolecules, dopamine was introduced onto the TiO2-B nanorod surface through the coordination of dopamine to the undercoordinated titanium atoms of the TiO2-B nanorods, which makes the complex a promising matrix for subsequent biosensing. Furthermore, concanavalin A as a recognition element was attached onto the TiO2-B nanorod/dopamine modified electrode surface by virtue of covalent interaction between concanavalin A and dopamine. Accordingly, a new competitive-like non-enzymatic photoelectrochemical biosensor was established by using glucose labeled SiO2 nanospheres of fixed concentration as photoelectrochemical signal inhibitors competing with target glucose of various concentrations for reaction with concanavalin A. Moreover, this ultrasensitive biosensor with excellent analytical performance was successful applied to noninvasive glucose determination in human saliva. Promisingly, the successful application of TiO2-B nanorods in this research provides a new consideration in the selection of excellent photoactive materials for photoelectrochemical sensing.
