Cu species was introduced into TiO2 nanotube prepared by hydrothermal method via a facile adsorption-dry process. The fabricated sample exhibited excellent H2 generation activity (76.3 mmol h?1 g?1 catalyst), which was higher than most of the reported Cu incorporated TiO2 samples, even superior to s...
