Here we report a facile one-step low-temperature solution-based method to treat native TiO 2 with NaH. The NaH treatment effectively induces the Ti( iii ) species and oxygen vacancies into the TiO 2 host lattice, and enables the absorption edge of TiO 2 to be conveniently adjusted from the UV region...
