Room Temperature Synthesis and Photopatterning of Mesoporous Titanium Dioxide Thin Films
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A nanofabrication strategy combining deep‐UV photolithography with block copolymer self‐assembly enables direct patterning and mineralization of mesoporous TiO2 thin films at room temperature. Photocatalytic titanium oxo‐clusters promote polymer degradation under UV irradiation, enabling multiscale control over porosity, film thickness, and lateral ...
