Abstract

Black platelike brookite with outstanding photocatalytic performance is prepared by constructing a distinct crystalline core/disordered shell structure (TiO2@TiO2−x) through aluminium reduction. Many oxygen vacancies and Ti3+ states are introduced into the distorted shell, which increase the solar energy absorption and boost the photocatalytic activity.
