摘 要:Pure and La-doped TiO2thin films were prepared on glass by sol-gel method using tetrabutyl titanate as Ti precursors.Their chemical composition,structure and properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR),UV-Visible spectrophotometer and optical contact angle measuring instrument,respectively.The results showed that the content of La was the key factor for hydrophilic and photocatalytic activity.LaTiO3could be formed in La-doped TiO2thin films,which caused the TiO2lattice distortion and restrained the transition from anatase to rutile.By adding 0.3 wt.%La to the TiO2thin films,the optimal hydrophilic character could be obtained and the contact angle was only 9.6o.La-doped TiO2thin films could expand the wavelength response range of TiO2,and thus increase the speed of the photocatalytic reaction.92.02%of methylene blue was finally degraded when the concentration of La was 0.3 wt.%.The expressions of ln(CA0/CA)as functions of photocatalytic time were deduced which were well consistent with the experimental results.
