Surface modification of TiO₂ nanocrystals by WO(x) coating or wrapping : solvothermal synthesis and enhanced surface chemistry
TiO2 anatase nanocrystals were prepared by solvothermal processing of Ti chloroalkoxide in oleic acid, in the presence of W chloroalkoxide, with W/Ti nominal atomic concentration (R(w)) ranging from 0.16 to 0.64. The as-prepared materials were heat-treated up to 500 °C for thermal stabilization and sensing device processing. For R(0.16), the as-prepared materials were constituted by an anatase core surface-modified by WO(x) monolayers. This structure persisted up to 500 °C, without any WO3 phase segregation. For R(w) up to R(0.64), the anatase core was initially wrapped by an amorphous WO(x) gel. Upon heat treatment, the WO(x) phase underwent structural reorganization, remaining amorphous up to 400 °C and forming tiny WO3 nanocrystals dispersed into the TiO2 host after heating at 500 °C, when part of tungsten also migrated into the TiO2 structure, resulting in structural and electrical modification of the anatase host. The ethanol sensing properties of the various materials were tested and compared with pure TiO2 and WO3 analogously prepared. They showed that even the simple surface modification of the TiO2 host resulted in a 3 orders of magnitude response improvement with respect to pure TiO2.
