abstract = {An aqueous sol-gel process, previously developed for
producing undoped and Cu2+, Ni2+, Zn2+ or Pb2+ doped TiO2
photocatalysts with remarkably high photocatalytic activity
without requiring any calcination step, has been adapted to
produce Fe3+, Cr3+, La3+ or Eu3+ single-doped TiO2
photocatalysts as well as La3+-Fe3+ and Eu3+-Fe3+ co-doped
TiO2 catalysts. The physicochemical properties of the
obtained catalysts have been characterized using a suite of
complementary techniques, including ICP-AES, XRD, UV–Vis
spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption and Fe-57
Mössbauer. The active crystalline phase is obtained without
requiring any calcination step and all the different
catalysts are composed of nanocrystallites of anatase with a
size of 6–7 nm and a high specific surface area varying
from 181 to 298 m2 g−1. In this study, the effect of the
NO3:Ti(IV) mole ratio used to induce the peptisation
reaction during the synthesis has been studied and the
results revealed that this ratio can influence significantly
the textural properties of the resulting catalyst.A
screening of the photocatalytic activity of the undoped and
Fe3+, Cr3+, La3+ or Eu3+ single-doped and co-doped
photocatalysts has been performed by evaluating the
degradation of 4-nitrophenol under UV–Visible light (330
nm < λ < 800 nm). This study suggests that the
photocatalytic activity is significantly influenced by the
dopant nature and content with an optimal dopant content
being observed in the case of Fe3+ or La3+ single-doped as
well as in the case of La3+-Fe3+ and Eu3+-Fe3+ co-doped
catalysts. In the case of Cr3+ single-doped catalysts, a
detrimental effect of the dopant on the photocatalytic
degradation of 4-nitrophenol has been observed while no
significant influence of the dopant has been detected in the
case of Eu3+ single-doped catalysts. The role of the
different dopants in modulating the photocatalytic activity
is discussed.},
