Abstract

Self-organized nanostructures (nanotubes and nanopores) consisting of TiO$_2$-MoO$_3$ were grown on Ti-Mo substrates with different Mo contents (7 wt % Mo, 20 wt % Mo, and 35 wt % Mo) by electrochemical anodization. The photocatalytic activity of these oxide layers was compared with TiO$_2$ nanotubes. The results show clearly that MoO$_3$ doping of about 7 wt % (Ti7Mo in picture) strongly enhances the achievable photodegradation ability of titania nanotubes.
