Abstract:
In the present work we show that a suitable high temperature ammonia treatment allows for the conversion of single-walled TiO2 nanotube arrays not only to a N-doped photoactive anatase material (which is already well established), but even further into fully functional titanium nitride (TiN) tubular structures that exhibit semimetallic conductivity.
