Vertically aligned titanium oxide (TiO2) nanotube arrays have demonstrated remarkable properties for application in dyesensitised solar cell, photocatalysis, self-cleaning coating, purification of pollutants and orthopaedic implants. More excitingly, their architecture and dimensions can be precisely controlled using anodisation of titanium (Ti), creating considerable scientific interest and practical importance. This project aims to develop novel techniques for determining the mechanical behaviour of TiO2 nanotube arrays and its dependence on crystal structure and geometrical parameters. The outcomes are expected to provide solutions to development of robust TiO2 and other nanotube arrays for broad applications in sustainable energy and tissue engineering.

垂直排列的二氧化钛（TiO2）纳米管阵列在染料敏化太阳能电池、光催化、自清洁涂层、污染物净化和骨科植入物的应用中表现出卓越的性能。更令人兴奋的是，它们的结构和尺寸可以通过钛（Ti）阳极氧化来精确控制，从而产生了相当大的科学兴趣和实际重要性。该项目旨在开发新技术来确定 TiO2 纳米管阵列的机械行为及其对晶体结构和几何参数的依赖性。研究结果预计将为开发坚固的二氧化钛和其他纳米管阵列提供解决方案，以在可持续能源和组织工程中得到广泛应用。
