and more efcient water splitting of vertically grown carbon-doped TiO

arrays with high aspect ratios (3 μm length) under the visible-light illumination
than those of pure titania nanotube arrays. The difference between this system and
using the dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cell for water splitting is that carbon-
doped titania tubes directly used as both photoelectrode and light collector absorbed
the visible light without any help from the dye.
