Photoinduced Hydrophilicity of Heterogeneous TiO2/WO3 Double Layer Films

The photoinduced hydrophilicity of TiO2/WO3 double layer films was fabricated by using a conventional rf-magnetron sputtering method. The photoinduced hydrophilic reaction of the TiO2 surface was enhanced by the presence of WO3 under the TiO2 layer by irradiation of a 10 W cylindrical fluorescent light bulb. However, when the TiO2 and WO3 layers were separated by an insulating layer, the surface did not appeared high hydrophilic,under the same light bulb. The enhanced photoinduced hydrophilic reaction can be explained by the charge transfer between TiO2 and WO3 layers. It was also demonstrated that visible light passing through the TiO2 layer could excite WO3. Thus, visible light can be used for the hydrophilic reaction in the present TiO2/WO3 system.
