Abstract
Electrostatic self-assembled Ag(2)O/TiO(2) nanobelts heterostructure was synthesized via simple physical mixing of Ag(2)O nanoparticles and TiO(2) nanobelts. The morphologies and microstructures of Ag(2)O/TiO(2) nanobelt heterostructure were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The interface dominated high UV photocatalytic activity and degraded photoluminescence strength of composite catalyst confirmed the heterostructure effect between Ag(2)O nanoparticles and TiO(2) nanobelts. X-ray photoelectron spectroscope provided direct evidence of charge transfer on the heterostructures between them.
