Abstract

Herein we report a novel, environment-friendly approach for the reduction of graphene oxide by means of incorporating visible-light sensitive TiO 2 and steady state visible-light irradiation. The surface morphology and fine structure of as-prepared composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, respectively. The reduction process was evidenced by variation of conductivity. In addition, some of the electrochemical properties of the resultant graphene materials have been investigated as well.
