  • Abstract
    In this study, the TiO2 nanorods were synthesized from P25 TiO2 nanoparticles by hydrothermal method in 10 M NaOH solution. The effects of annealing temperatures on produced nanorods were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Diameter growth and changes of surface oxygen defects of synthesized nanorods are studied with increasing annealing temperatures.
