Controllable Fabrication of Multibranched TiO2 Nanotubes via a Two-step Anodization Method

Multibranched TiO2 nanotubes have been controllably fabricated through a two-step anodization method. By tailoring the diameter ratio of the stem and branch accurate by multibranched, such as two-, three-, and four-branched, TiO2 nanotubes were obtained. The relationship of the diameter ratio and th...

Description
Summary:Multibranched TiO2 nanotubes have been controllably fabricated through a two-step anodization method. By tailoring the diameter ratio of the stem and branch accurate by multibranched, such as two-, three-, and four-branched, TiO2 nanotubes were obtained. The relationship of the diameter ratio and the branch number also has been discussed. This method provides a powerful approach to produce multibranched TiO2 nanotubes, which should have great potential application in future nanoscale systems.
