In this work, sulfur-doped (S-doped) TiO2 with the (001) face exposed was synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition at 180 or 250 °C using S/Ti molar ratios R S/Ti of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The S-doped samples synthesized at 250 °C exhibit a significantly improved photocatalytic performance. More precisely, S-doping has the following effects on the material: (1) S can adopt different chemical states in the samples. Specifically, it exists in the form of S2− replacing O2− at a ratio of R S/Ti = 1 and also in the form of S6+ replacing Ti4+ at R S/Ti ≥ 2. As a result, S-doping causes a lattice distortion, because the ionic radii of S2− and S6+ differ from that of the O2− and Ti4+ ions. (2) S-doping increases the adsorption coefficient A e for methylene blue (MB) from 0.9% to 68.5% due to the synergistic effects of the oxygen vacancies, increased number of surface chemical adsorption centers as a result of SO4 2− adsorption on the TiO2 surface and the larger pore size. (3) S-doping increases the MB degradation rate from 6.9 × 10−2 min−1 to 18.2 × 10−2 min−1 due to an increase in the amount of •OH and •O2− radicals.

The synergy between polyvinylpyrrolidone and enriched oxygen vacancies can promote the adsorption of reactants (TMB and O2) and desorption of reaction products, which results in the enhanced oxidase-mimetic activity of CeO2 nanoflowers.

The N - AZO / TiO 2 heterogeneous nanocomposite with core/shell structure revealed a better photocatalytic activity than the single N - AZO nanocrystals (NCs) even though it has a good photocatalytic effect. The recombination degree of photo-induced electrons and holes reduced significantly after molecular TiO 2 layer composited on the surface of N - AZO NCs. From the experiment of degrading rhodamine B solution (2 × 10-5 g/L) under solar light, the optimum photocatalytic efficiency was the N - AZO / TiO 2 composite prepared by idiopathic molecule-cladding (IMC) process and the best proportion of Zn / Ti was 2:1 in our research, which improved by 67% than pure N - AZO . Moreover, the N - AZO / TiO 2 composite prepared by IMC process achieved a molecular combination level between the two components, which not only can improve the immobility of composite structure, but also can make the photogenerated electrons and holes transport easier.

The heterostructured g-C3N4/Ag–TiO2 composites exhibited high photocatalytic activity, which was attributed to the synergistic effects of the enhanced absorption of visible light and the efficient separation rates for photogenerated electrons-holes.

The co-generation of C-doping and oxygen vacancies (OVs) in Bi2WO6 nanosheets was achieved by a graphene oxide-mediated hydrothermal method. The photocatalytic performance was highly promoted in NO removal with the synergistic effects of C-doping and OVs.
