Abstract

Large-scale, ultrathin, and (001) facet exposed anatase TiO₂ nanosheet superstructures were synthesized by a facile one-step solvothermal method. The length and width of the nanosheets was as high as 1.5–2 μm, while the thickness of the nanosheets was only about 2–4 nm. The anatase TiO₂ nanosheet superstructures have superior photocatalytic performance.
