Effect of nickel doping concentration on the morphological and structural properties of titanium dioxide nanoparticles
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is widely used as a photocatalyst due to its advantages of low cost, photostability, strong oxidation capability, and high resistance to chemical and environmental sustainability. However, TiO2 has drawbacks of a wide band gap and fast recombination of electron-hole pairs whi...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is widely used as a photocatalyst due to its advantages of low cost, photostability, strong oxidation capability, and high resistance to chemical and environmental sustainability. However, TiO2 has drawbacks of a wide band gap and fast recombination of electron-hole pairs which reduces its photocatalytic efficiency. Therefore, doping TiO2 with metal ions can be considered to overcome these issues. In this study, Ni-doped TiO2 with different doping concentrations (1, 3, 5, and 7 wt%) have been successfully prepared by the sol-gel method. All samples were characterized using field emissions scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Energy dispersion X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR).
