Microstructure And Electrochemical Behaviour Of Mg Or Sr Doped Ilmenite (Fetio3) For Artificial Photo-synthesis

Abstract

Extended Abstract With the aim of displacing the conduction band of mineral ilmenite (FeTiO 3 ), and thus, enhancing its performance towards reductive reactions for artificial photosynthesis, samples of ilmenite were doped with either Mg or Sr by High Energy Ball Milling [1]. Analyses of the X-ray Diffraction patterns were carried out for all the obtained samples. Furthermore, the electrochemical behaviour of the samples was studied to establish the effects of the
