Charge separationisavitalprocessinordertoachievehighperformanceTiO2-based photocatalysts.In the urrentstudy,toenhancethechargeseparationandsuppressthechargerecombination,novelna-
nocomposites ofmetal(CoandCu)andnonmetal(C,N,S)dopedTiO2 nanophotocatalyst(labeledas
Co@C,N,S-doped TiO2 and Cu@C,N,S-dopedTiO2) weresynthesizedviaphotochemicaldeposition-as-
sisted sol–gel technique.Thecrystallinestructuresandcharacteristicofthepreparedcatalystswere
