Size controllable self-assembly of titania nanospheres cored with fullerenol/fullerene
Abstract
The core–shell nanospheres fullerenol–TiO2 and C60@2β-CD–TiO2 were fabricated by a layer-by-layer self-assembly procedure seeding with fullerenols and C60@2β-CD respectively, the nanospheres ranging in size from 40 to 80 nm and 10–20 nm in diameter respectively. The presence of fullerenols in the
