I want to dope titanium with rare earth metals via Sol gel process in acidic conditions
Firstly I dissolve TTIP in absolute ethanol under stirring four one hour then this solution is added to second solution that content water and HCl under vigorous stirring.
I have some rare earth oxide and I hope doping titanium with this solid elements to enhance photo catalytic activity of Titanium dioxide.
What solution I should use to solubilize this rare earth oxides?
In what step in Sol gel process I add this solution of rare earth to get doped titanium?
Thanks
