Visible-Light Photodegradation of Dye on Co-Doped Titania Nanotubes Prepared by Hydrothermal Synthesis

Highly porous Co-doped TiO2 nanotubes synthesized from a hydrothermal treatment were used to photodecompose methylene blue (MB) in liquid phase under visible light irradiation. The anatase-type titania nanotubes were found to have high specific surface areas of about 289–379 m2/g. These tubes were s...
