Photoelectric Properties of a Nanocomposite Derived from Reduced Graphene Oxide and TiO2

The properties of a nanocomposite derived from reduced graphene oxide and TiO 2 obtained by hydrothermal synthesis were investigated. Nanocomposite formation was confirmed by SEM as well as Raman and IR spectroscopy. The introduction of 10% rGO into the nanocomposite leads to considerably lower resi...

Description
Summary:The properties of a nanocomposite derived from reduced graphene oxide and TiO 2 obtained by hydrothermal synthesis were investigated. Nanocomposite formation was confirmed by SEM as well as Raman and IR spectroscopy. The introduction of 10% rGO into the nanocomposite leads to considerably lower resistance than found for TiO 2 itself. The combination of enhanced electrotransport, optical, and adsorption parameters of these nanocomposites leads to better photoelectrochemical characteristics than for pure titanium dioxide.
