Black titanium dioxide, TiO 2- x , was obtained by hydrogenating commercial TiO 2 on nickel foam with radio frequency (RF) atmospheric pressure (AP) He/H 2 plasma in short-time (5, 15 and 30 min) at power of 180 W. Voltage and current waveform was used to characterize the RF discharge. Optical emiss...
