La-doped TiO_2 thin films on titanium substrates were prepared by the sol–gel method with titanium tetrachloride as a precursor and La_2O_3 as a source of lanthanum. The heat-treatment temperature dependence of the photoelectrochemical performance of the La-doped TiO_2 film in 0.2 mol/L Na_2SO_4 was investigated by the MottSchottky equation, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and the open-circuit potential test. The results from the Mott-Schottky curves show that the obtained films all were n-type semiconductors, and the film at 300 °C had the highest conduction band position and the widest space charge layer. The electrochemical impendence spectroscopy(EIS) tests of the 300 °C film decreased most during the change from illuminated to dark. The potential of the La–TiO_2 thin film electrode was the lowest after the 300 °C heat treatment. The open-circuit potential indicated that the photoelectrical performance of the La-TiO_2 films was enhanced with the addition of the La element and the largest decline(837.8 mV) in the electrode potential was achieved with the 300 °C heat treatment.
