Abstract

The Fe-doped TiO2 nanotube arrays were fabricated in Fe(NO3)3-HF mixing solutions by electrochemical anodic oxidation method,and characterized by FESEM,Raman,XPS and DRS.The effect of Fe concentratiions on photoelectrochemical property of the arrays was also investigated.The diameters and lengths of Fe-doped TiO2 nanotube arrays were 50~90 nm and about 200 nm,respectively.Compared with the undoped TiO2 nanotube arrays,the absorption edge of Fe-doped TiO2 nanotube arrays appeared red shifting.The more Fe content,the larger red shifting,in addition,the photocurrent of Fe-doped TiO2 nanotube arrays increased obviously.
