The physicochemical properties of the SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ phosphor were characterized and compared to those of the SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ prepared by sol-gel method. The photocatalytic properties of the SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ were evaluated in photocatalytic water decomposition for hydrogen production. The SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ prepared by hydrothermal reaction exhibited excellent phosphor properties which were similar with that prepared by sol-gel method. Its photocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution was higher than that of TiO2 photocatalyst.展开更多

X-Ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM） equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （EDX） were used to characterize the structure and morphology of the materials. There were significant differences between the WO3 materials that were calcinated and those that were subjected to a hydrothermal process. The XRD results revealed that calcination temperatures of 300℃and 400℃ gave hexagonal structures and temperatures of 500℃ and 600℃ gave monoclinic structures. The SEM images showed that an increase in calcination temperature led to a decrease in the WO3 powder particle size. The TEM analysis showed that several nanoparticles agglomerated to form bigger clusters. The hydrothermal process produced hexagonal structures for holding times of 12, 16, and 20 h and monoclinic structures for a holding time of 24 h. The SEM results showed transparent rectangular panicles which according to the TEM results originated from the aggregation of several nanotubes.展开更多
