Abstract:
Highly soluble anatase nanocrystals of 4 nm diameter have been prepared by the reaction of amorphous titania with trifluoroacetic acid. The solubility of the nanocrystals is a result of surface bound carboxylate groups, and enables the organic-inorganic hybrid material to be processed from solution to yield high quality coatings and thin-films.
