Abstract
An electron paramagnetic resonance study of nitrogen-doped TiO 2 samples has been carried out in the dark and under illumination with light at different wavelengths. N · and NO · paramagnetic species were detected in the samples and their dynamics under illumination of TiO 2 was investigated. Photosensitivity of the nitrogen-doped TiO 2 and its photocatalytic activity under visible-light irradiation increases through the creation of additional levels in the band gap of TiO 2 caused by doping.
