Abstract A fluorescence lifetime measurement was performed for monitoring the viscosity of a confined liquid (glycerol) film between mica surfaces using cyanine dye, Cy1, as probe at various thicknesses. The decay curve consisted two components, i.e., one attributed to Cy1 in central part and another adsorbed on surfaces. increased former indicated increase liquid.
Abstract We have prepared visible-light-sensitive tungsten oxide (WO3) nanoparticle photocatalysts by a thermal plasma method and subsequent annealing treatment. The WO3 effectively decomposed acetaldehyde under visible-light irradiation the activity increased with temperature. annealed at 600 °C exhibited fivefold higher photocatalytic than nitrogen-doped TiO2 commercial WO3. high of nanoparticles was attributed to their crystallinity large surface area. It also found that decomposition...
We report a novel approach for increasing the rate of organic material decomposition photo-catalyzed by visible light activated tungsten oxide (WO 3 ). It was confirmed that photo-catalysis WO nano-particles fabricated gas phase method and annealed at 600 °C 1 hour achieves 30 times higher compared to commonly reported nitrogen doped titanium dioxides (TiO 2 1) The high in presence could be attributed their crystalline quality large surface area. also found can further doubled addition metal...
