TiO2 thin films sensitization with natural dyes extracted from Bactris guineensis for photocatalytic applications: Experimental and DFT study
TiO2 thin films, sensitized by an anthocyanins-rich extract of a common species found in the Colombian Caribbean region (Bactris guineensis fruits), were used for the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. The sensitization process was verified by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). The q...
