In this study, the sol-gel method was used to prepare Mg-doped TiO2 nanoparticles from titanium tetraisopropoxide and magnesium sulfate as the dopant precursors. Mg-doped TiO2 shows the formation of anatase phase with polyhedral and spherical particles with an average size of 25-30 nm. X-ray diffrac...
