Abstract

Self-ordered Nb₂O₅-TiO₂ nanotube arrays were synthesized by an anodization method from a Ti-Nb alloy. Compared with pure TiO₂ nanotubes, Nb₂O₅-TiO₂ nanotubes show enhanced surface hydrophilicity and low charge-transfer resistance. The beneficial Nb-doping effects also exhibit an improved separation efficiency, leading to higher photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic activities.
