ABSTRACT A thin film TiO 2 in hierarchical nano-structure with high photocatalytic activities was synthesized in simple steps with ultrasonication. The crystal structure and morphology of the photocatalyst were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). In the present work, nanostructured TiO 2 was directly formed onto a Ti substrate via a solution approach. Th...

ABSTRACT Inorganic hollow spheres have shown their superiority in photocatalytic area due to the large specific surface area, controllable structure and their own special optical, electrical, magnetic properties. According to the classification of inorganic hollow spheres as photocatalysts, recent research progress and application status have been summarized in this paper. At last, the future developments of inorganic hollow spheres in photocatalytic field have been discussed.
