Copper doped titanium dioxide (Cu-TiO2) nanotubes were synthesised by hydrothermal method. The samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nitrogen gas adsorption. The photocatalytic activity of the copper doped titanium dioxide nanotubes was investigated by photodegradation of methyl orange under UV light. The structural and morphological studies showed that, the copper was incorporated into interstitial positions of the TiO2lattice to form a new phase of TiO2(hexagonal). The copper doped TiO2nanotubes possessed high surface area and pore volume, results high photocatalytic activity for degradation of methyl orange (MO).

C-doped, Mo-doped, and (Mo, C)-codoped TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared by a sol-gel process. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) under simulated solar irradiation. Results indicated that both monodoped and codoped TiO2 exhibited better visible light absorption behavior and narrower energy gap than pure TiO2, and codoped TiO2 showed a slightly higher adsorption property in the dark because of higher Brunauer–Emmett–Teller-specific surface area. The photocatalytic activity of monodoped TiO2 was also enhanced, and the (0.04% Mo, C)-codoped sample had the best photocatalytic activity for degrading MO among all of the samples. The reason can be ascribed to the synergistic effect due to Mo and C doping. Furthermore, the transfer pathways of photoinduced carriers and photocatalytic reaction mechanism of (Mo, C)-codoped TiO2 was first investigated.

The ZnO-Cr2O3 composites with different complex proportion were prepared by a sol-gel method. The mol ratio of Zn and Cr element could be tuned by controlling the concentration of the precursors. These composites showed photocatalytic activities in degradation of methyl orange under the irradiation of 300W mercury lamp. And the activities regularly varied with the mol ratio of Zn and Cr. When n(Zn):n(Cr)=10:1, a composite with best photocatalytic activity could be obtained.

ZnO treated at 200 °C offered high photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange (99%) in a short time (90 min). The activity can be attributed to several factors including low crystallite size, high band gap energy and porosity.
