Optical Properties, Electronic Structures And High Pressure Study Of Nanostructured One Dimensional Titanium Dioxide By Synchrotron Radiation And Spectroscopy, Ankang Zhao
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
One dimensional (1D) titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanomaterials have been extensively studied in recent years due to their superior electrical, optical mechanical and chemical properties compared with their bulk counterparts. Two different kinds of 1D TiO2 nanomaterials, TiO2 nanowires (TiO2 NW) and TiO2 nanotubes (TiO2 NT), are studied in this thesis by using various techniques.
In one study, TiO2 NW synthesized by hydrothermal method and a series of calcinated TiO2 NW were investigated by using absorption near edge structures (XANES), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL). It is found …
