Abstract

This paper reviews recent investigations of the influence of dopants on the optical properties ofTiO2polymorphs. The common undoped polymorphs ofTiO2are discussed and compared. The results of recent doping efforts are tabulated, and discussed in the context of doping by elements of the same chemical group. Dopant effects on the band gap and photocatalytic activity are interpreted with reference to a simple qualitative picture of theTiO2electronic structure, which is supported with first-principles calculations.
