What is it about?

Nanostructured TiO2 is effective to remove pollutants from water or air; yet its fabrications generally demand harsh conditions. This study provides a facile technique to synthesize quasi-aligned TiO2 nanobelts arrays. The synthesis route is also capable of doping certain elements in TiO2 to further enhance the photoactivity.
