| Abstract
|
:
|
The optical and electronic properties of TiO<sub>2</sub> thin films provide tremendous opportunities in several applications including photocatalysis, photovoltaics and photoconductors for energy production. Despite many attractive features of TiO<sub>2</sub>, critical challenges include the innate inability of TiO<sub>2</sub> to absorb visible light and the fast recombination of photoexcited charge carriers. In this study, mesoporous TiO<sub>2</sub> thin films are modified by doping using hydrogen and nitrogen, and sensitization using graphene quantum dot sensitization.
