Titania Nanotubes for Energy Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

Titania (or titanium dioxide) nanotubes are advanced materials with diverse functionalities. They have a variety of applications ranging from biology, food, cosmetics, energy and related areas. In this paper, we provide a brief description of electrochemical routes that may be used to synthesize such nanotubes rapidly over large areas. We also provide a brief overview of their energy-related.
