Physical Origin of Diminishing Photocatalytic Efficiency for Recycled TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanotubes and Ag-Loaded TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanotubes in Organic Aqueous Solution

Arrays of titania nanotubes (TiO<sub>2</sub>NTs) were developed by electrochemical anodization and doped with silver on their surface by photodeposition to achieve TiO<sub>2</sub>NTs/Ag. It is found that only anatase TiO<sub>2</sub>NTs were formed, with the prefer...
