Role of water adsorption in photoinduced superhydrophilicity on TiO2 thin films

The ultraviolet (UV) irradiation of a titanium dioxide (TiO2) film surface gives rise to two simultaneous phenomena: photocatalysis and superhydrophilicity. Photocatalysis has been thoroughly studied, but the mechanism governing superhydrophilicity remains controversial. The authors’ investigations...
