The effect of anatase on rutile TIO2 nanoflowers towards ITS photo-catalytic activity on cancer cells
itanium dioxide (Ti02) rutile nanoflowers were fabricated using acidic hydrothermal method. Ti02 nanoflowers were successfully grown on fluorine doped tin oxide (ITO) substrates. The hydrothermal reaction time and amount of titanium butoxide {TBOT) precursors were optimized to be 10 hours and 2 ml,...
