Abstract:
Enjoying the single lifestyle: With an overwhelming efficiency compared to thermally sintered preformed nanocrystals, mesoporous single crystals (MSCs) of TiO2 constitute a new class of semiconductor materials for low-cost solar power, solar fuel, photocatalysis, and energy storage applications. This Highlight explores the benefits of template-directed seed-mediated growth in the confined space of a preseeded mesoporous template, and possible research avenues for further improvements.
