The hydrothermal condition was set at 180 °C for 12 hours. Material characteristics were investigated by XRD, SEM and solid UV-Vis methods. The results show that, all prepared materials have a crystal particle size of about nano-meters, small and smooth ( nm). La3+ doped TiO2 samples had a shift towards longer wavelengths ( 400 500 nm) compared to non-doped TiO2 sample ( 380 nm). The band gap energy (Eg) of La3+ doped TiO2 samples was reduced to eV . The yield of MB degradation of La3+ doped TiO2 at 5% mol/mol reached the highest 93% after 60 minutes under ultraviolet irradiation.
