Black anatase has been considered as the promising material for dye-sensitized solar cells and efficient water splitting under light exposure [1]. While defects play the essential role in the enhanced photo-catalytic activity it has received plenty of attention to expand studies of their roles as well as further advancing of light absorption [2]. Thin films were obtained by means of reactive sputtering and treated at room and 573K temperatures. The current Mössbauer study was done on black anatase thin films at the ISOLDE mass separator at CERN. Implantation of 57Mn (T1/2 = 1.5 min) was accomplished at ion energies of 50 keV, with the measurements performed online within an interval from 301 to 735K. Hyperfine parameters are given relative to the centre of the spectrum of α-Fe at RT.
