[0025] It also includes a sealed box 41, and a pressure gauge 42 is provided on the top surface of the sealed box 41 to monitor the pressure inside the sealed box 41. The surface of the sealed box 41 is connected to a gas supply pipe and an exhaust pipe. The gas supply pipe includes an inlet pipe 51, and a first gas valve 52 is provided inside the inlet pipe 51. One end of the inlet pipe 51 located inside the sealed box 41 is connected to a tapered pipe, and a porous insulating ceramic sheet 54 is provided inside the tapered pipe. Gas is supplied to the inside of the sealed box 41 through the inlet pipe 51, and the gas is evenly dispersed on the reaction material 7 by the porous insulating ceramic sheet 54 inside the tapered pipe. The exhaust pipe includes an outlet pipe 61 connected to one side of the sealed box 41, and a second gas valve 62 is provided inside the outlet pipe 61.

[0026] The bracket 1, U-shaped clamp 2, adjustment mechanism and clamping mechanism are all located inside the sealed box 41;

[0027] When the reactant 7 is a titanium dioxide thin film, graphite felt is used as the conductive resistor 8. Before turning on the power supply 33 and the switch 32, argon gas is introduced into the sealed box 41 through the gas inlet pipe 51 for 20 minutes. The argon gas is transported to the conductive resistor 8 and the reactant 7 through the conical tube and the porous insulating ceramic sheet 54. While maintaining the gas flow, the power supply 33 and the switch 32 are turned on and a DC voltage of 100 volts is provided. After the current is maintained for 1 minute, the power supply 33 and the switch 32 are turned off. After the system cools down, a titanium dioxide thin film rich in oxygen vacancies can be obtained.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Based on Example 1, please refer to Figs. 1-2 As shown, the specific improvements are as follows:
