Abstract
Unique second-generation titanium oxide photocatalysts enabling effective a nd efficient reactions not only under ultraviolet (UV) but also visible lig ht irradiation have been successfully designed and developed by applying a metal ion-implantation method. With these second-generation titanium oxide photocatalysts, solar beams are absorbed up to 25-30% more efficiently, all owing their large scale use for the reduction of enviromental toxins.
