Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanotube and its hybrid nanotubes (with various metal oxides such as Ta₂O₅, Nb₂O₅, ZrO<sub>2,</sub> and SiO₂) were fabricated by the sol-gel polymerization in the ethanol gels formed by simple l-lysine-based organogelator. The self-assembled nanofibers (gel fibers) formed by the gelator functioned as a template. The different calcination temperatures gave TiO₂ nanotubes with various crystalline structures; e.g., anatase TiO₂ nanotube was obtained by calcination at 600 °C, ...[more]
