New facile synthesis of one-dimensional Ag@TiO2 anatase core–shell nanowires for enhanced photocatalytic properties†
Abstract
One-dimensional Ag@TiO2 anatase core–shell nanowires are fabricated through a hydrolysis reaction and subsequent thermal-induced method. This photocatalyst exhibits much higher photocatalytic activities than Ag nanowires and TiO2 anatase nanoparticles under visible-light irradiation.
