Abstract
This work clarified the effects of self-assembly of perovskite cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) nanocubes (NCs) covered with didodecyldimethyl ammonium bromide (DDAB) on photoluminescence (PL) properties. Although the PL intensity of isolated NCs was weakened in the solid state even under inert conditions, the quantum yield of PL (PLQY) and the photostability of DDAB-covered NCs were drastically improved by the formation of two-dimensional (2D) ordered arrays on a substrate. The PLQY of the 2D arrays increased to ca. 60% by initial excitation illumination at 468 nm and was maintained for over 4000 h. The improved PL properties are attributable to the fixation of the surface ligand around the NCs in the specific ordered arrays.

The Anatase-to-Rutile Phase Transition in Highly Oriented Nanoparticles Array of Titania with Photocatalytic Response Changes. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:4418. [PMID: 36558271 PMCID: PMC9785057 DOI: 10.3390/nano12244418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 11/30/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
An array of highly oriented anatase nanoparticles was successfully prepared from NH4TiOF3 with the assistance of polyetheleneglycol-400 at 450 °C. The study showed the stability of obtained layered TiO2-anatase close to 1200 °C. This research confirmed for the first time that the transition of mesocrystalline anatase to the rutile phase occurs between 1000 °C and 1200 °C, which is more than 400 °C higher than the transition of bulk TiO2 due to the used precursor. A small quantity of K-phase nanowhiskers, which issued after 800 °C in the composite based on TiO2, stimulated a fourfold increase in photocatalytic performance. This study offers a new approach to the construction and preparation of effective nanocrystalline photocatalyst.

Abstract
Most biominerals are composed of mesocrystals, in which individual nanoparticle building units have a defined long-range order on the atomic scale in at least one direction. Although the crystal size and orientation of the mesostructures are spatially designed in biological architectures, it has been difficult to achieve adequate control of the crystal growth to produce modulated mesostructures in artificial aqueous systems. Here, we propose a simple physicochemical approach for the spatial design of nanostructures using an aqueous solution system. The ordered arrays of oriented fluorapatite (FA) rods similar to tooth enamel are produced on a polymer substrate in a supersaturated solution. We succeeded in reversible switching of the growth mode of FA between single-crystalline rods and mesocrystalline grains through the disturbance of the solution. The primary crystal size was tuned between micrometric rods ∼0.5 μm wide and >5 μm long and nanoscale grains ∼10 nm wide and 50 nm long without a drastic change in the c direction. Hierarchical architectures consisting of iso-oriented FA microrods and nanograins were constructed via temporal control of the crystal growth mode by switching a physicochemical parameter, such as the degree of supersaturation at the growth front.

Abstract
(NH4)3FeF6 mesocrystalline octahedrons are formed by in situ dissolution and the reaction of anodic iron oxides, followed by a non-classical crystal growth process involving electrical polarization and subsequent alignment of primary (NH4)3FeF6 particles under an external electric field. The obtained (NH4)3FeF6 can be converted to nano-micro hierarchical α-Fe2O3 octahedrons by thermal annealing.

Abstract
N-Doped oxygen defective N/TiO2-x mesocrystal nanocubes were successfully prepared by a facile strategy in our system. Crystal topotactic transformation from NH4TiOF3 mesocrystals facilitated the formation of a porous structure of TiO2. Meanwhile, the introduction of N dopants and oxygen vacancies (OVs) was also achieved during this process. The as-prepared products exhibit much higher photoelectrochemical (PEC) and photocatalytic degradation performance under visible light illumination. It is suggested that the promising catalytic properties result from the synergistic effect of doping, OVs and the amazing porous mesocrystal structure of N/TiO2-x .

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanomaterials have garnered extensive scientific interest since 1972 and have been widely used in many areas, such as sustainable energy generation and the removal of environmental pollutants. Although TiO2 possesses the desired performance in utilizing ultraviolet light, its overall solar activity is still very limited because of a wide bandgap (3.0–3.2 eV) that cannot make use of visible light or light of longer wavelength. This phenomenon is a deficiency for TiO2 with respect to its potential application in visible light photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical devices, as well as photovoltaics and sensors. The high overpotential, sluggish migration, and rapid recombination of photogenerated electron/hole pairs are crucial factors that restrict further application of TiO2. Recently, a broad range of research efforts has been devoted to enhancing the optical and electrical properties of TiO2, resulting in improved photocatalytic activity. This review mainly outlines state-of-the-art modification strategies in optimizing the photocatalytic performance of TiO2, including the introduction of intrinsic defects and foreign species into the TiO2 lattice, morphology and crystal facet control, and the development of unique mesocrystal structures. The band structures, electronic properties, and chemical features of the modified TiO2 nanomaterials are clarified in detail along with details regarding their photocatalytic performance and various applications.

Abstract
Hierarchical TiO2 superstructures with desired architectures and intriguing physico-chemical properties are considered to be one of the most promising candidates for solving the serious issues related to global energy exhaustion as well as environmental deterioration via the well-known photocatalytic process. In particular, TiO2 mesocrystals, which are built from TiO2 nanocrystal building blocks in the same crystallographical orientation, have attracted intensive research interest in the area of photocatalysis owing to their distinctive structural properties such as high crystallinity, high specific surface area, and single-crystal-like nature. The deeper understanding of TiO2 mesocrystals-based photocatalysis is beneficial for developing new types of photocatalytic materials with multiple functionalities. In this paper, a comprehensive review of the recent advances toward fabricating and modifying TiO2 mesocrystals is provided, with special focus on the underlying mesocrystallization mechanism and controlling rules. The potential applications of as-synthesized TiO2 mesocrystals in photocatalysis are then discussed to shed light on the structure–performance relationships, thus guiding the development of highly efficient TiO2 mesocrystal-based photocatalysts for certain applications. Finally, the prospects of future research on TiO2 mesocrystals in photocatalysis are briefly highlighted.

Abstract
Titania semiconductors can be activated by external physical triggers to produce electrons (e-) and holes (h+) pairs from the energy-band structure and subsequently induce the generation of reactive oxygen species for killing cancer cells, but the traditional ultraviolet light with potential phototoxicity and low-tissue-penetrating depth as the irradiation source significantly hinders the further in vivo broad biomedical applications. Here, the very-recent development of novel exogenous physical irradiation of titania semiconductors for tumor-specific therapies based on their unique physiochemical properties, including near infrared (NIR)-triggered photothermal hyperthermia and photodynamic therapy, X-ray/Cerenkov radiation-activated deep-seated photodynamic therapy, ultrasound-triggered sonodynamic therapy, and the intriguing synergistic therapeutic paradigms by combined exogenous physical irradiations are in focus. Most of these promising therapeutic modalities are based on the semiconductor nature of titania nanoplatforms, together with their defect modulation for photothermal hyperthermia. The biocompatibility and biosafety of these titania semiconductors are also highlighted for guaranteeing their further clinical translation. Challenges and future developments of titania-based therapeutic nanoplatforms and the corresponding developed therapeutic modalities for potential clinical translation of tumor-specific therapy are also discussed and outlooked.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2 ) is one of the most widely investigated metal oxides because of its extraordinary surface, electronic, and photocatalytic properties. However, the large band gap of TiO2 and the considerable recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs limit its photocatalytic efficiency. Therefore, research attention is being increasingly directed towards engineering the surface structure of TiO2 on the atomic level (namely morphological control of {001} facets on the micro- and nanoscale) to fine-tune its physicochemical properties; this could ultimately lead to the optimization of selectivity and reactivity. This Review encompasses the fundamental principles to enhance the photocatalytic activity by using highly reactive {001}-faceted TiO2 -based composites. The current progress of such composites, with particular emphasis on the photodegradation of pollutants and photocatalytic water splitting for hydrogen generation, is also discussed. The progresses made are thoroughly examined for achieving remarkable photocatalytic performances, with additional insights with regard to charge transfer. Finally, a summary and some perspectives on the challenges and new research directions for future exploitation in this emerging frontier are provided, which hopefully would allow for harnessing the outstanding structural and electronic properties of {001} facets for various energy- and environmental-related applications.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most widely investigated metal oxides due to its extraordinary surface, electronic and catalytic properties. However, the large band gap of TiO2 and massive recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs limit its photocatalytic and photovoltaic efficiency. Therefore, increasing research attention is now being directed towards engineering the surface structure of TiO2 at the most fundamental and atomic level namely morphological control of {001} facets in the range of microscale and nanoscale to fine-tune its physicochemical properties, which could ultimately lead to the optimization of its selectivity and reactivity. The synthesis of {001}-faceted TiO2 is currently one of the most active interdisciplinary research areas and demonstrations of catalytic enhancement are abundant. Modifications such as metal and non-metal doping have also been extensively studied to extend its band gap to the visible light region. This steady progress has demonstrated that TiO2-based composites with {001} facets are playing and will continue to play an indispensable role in the environmental remediation and in the search for clean and renewable energy technologies. This review encompasses the state-of-the-art research activities and latest advancements in the design of highly reactive {001} facet-dominated TiO2via various strategies, including hydrothermal/solvothermal, high temperature gas phase reactions and non-hydrolytic alcoholysis methods. The stabilization of {001} facets using fluorine-containing species and fluorine-free capping agents is also critically discussed in this review. To overcome the large band gap of TiO2 and rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers, modifications are carried out to manipulate its electronic band structure, including transition metal doping, noble metal doping, non-metal doping and incorporating graphene as a two-dimensional (2D) catalyst support. The advancements made in these aspects are thoroughly examined, with additional insights related to the charge transfer events for each strategy of the modified-TiO2 composites. Finally, we offer a summary and some invigorating perspectives on the major challenges and new research directions for future exploitation in this emerging frontier, which we hope will advance us to rationally harness the outstanding structural and electronic properties of {001} facets for various environmental and energy-related applications.
