Titanate nanotubes were prepared by hydrothermal method. The photoelectrochemical properties of the titanate nanotubes were investigated. The titanate nanotubes produced anodic photocurrent, exhibiting the property of n-type semiconductor. The experimental results showed that photocurrent produced by the poly(3-methylthiophene) (PMeT) modified titanate nanotubes and the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) modified titanate nanotubes was higher than that of the pure titanate nanotubes. The wavelength producing photocurrent for titanate nanotubes/PMeT and titanate nanotubes/P3HT both shifted to long wavelength region respectively. The maximum IPCE of titanate nanotubes/PMeT and titanate nanotubes/P3HT reached 11.40% and 0.91% respectively (no correction for photon loss). The maximum IPCE of titanate nano-tubes/PMeT was higher by 10.5% than that of titanate nanotubes/P3HT. The p-n heterojunction existed in ti-tanate nanotubes/PMeT and titanate nanotubes/P3HT respectively, which favored the separation of elec-tron/hole pairs generated by photoexcition.
