In order to sensitize the titanium (IV) oxide photocatalyst towards visible light, the photocatalyst was modified via horizontal vapor phase growth technique through the addition of cobalt (II) phthalocyanine into its crystal lattice. The prepared nanomaterials were characterized using scanning elec...
