The novel carbon- or chromium-doped TiOX photocatalysts with different oxygen defects were synthesized by mechanochemical technique and heating process. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectrophotometer, and fluorescence spectrometer. Carbon and chromium species were incorporated into TiO crystal matrix. The mass fraction of Ti O in TiO X 7 13 X photocatalysts could be tunable through carbon or chromium doping. The mass fraction of Ti O could be an indication of
