Fluorine ions-mediated morphology control of anatase TiO2 with enhanced photocatalytic activity

Abstract

This review briefly summarizes recent advances in fluorine ions-mediated morphology control of anatase TiO2 in the forms of nanotube arrays, nanosheets with high-energy facets, and hollow spheres. The correlations between the enhanced photocatalytic activity and structural and morphological modifications of anatase TiO2 by fluorine ions are addressed.
