The present review gives an overview of the highlights of more than 10 years of research on synthesis and applications of ordered oxide structures (nanotube layers, hexagonal pore arrangements) that are formed by self-organizing anodization…
In present work, we report on the use of organized TiO$_2$ nanotube layers with a regular intertube spacing for the growth of highly defined $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ nano-needles in the interspace. These $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ decorated TiO$_2$…
