The XRD(X-ray diffraction) and Raman spectra reveal that the TiO2 is anatase. The UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra show that the optical absorption edge for Ce-TiO_2/CA is red-shifted to 535 nm compared with TiO_2/CA. Under visible light irradiation, the photocurrent density increment on Ce-TiO_2/CA is 75 times that on Ce-TiO_2/FTO(fluorine-doped tin oxide). The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy reveals that the conductivity of CeTiO_2/CA is much better than the Ce-TiO_2/FTO. Furthermore, the Ce-TiO_2/CA can be used to the highest electrosorptive photodegradation for 4-chlorophenol wastewater degradation, which is ascribed predominantly to the efficient reduction of electron-hole pair recombination in the photocatalysts.展开更多
