Nanoscale engineering of regular structured materials is immensely demanded in various scientific areas. In this work, vertically oriented TiO2 nanotube arrays were grown by self-organizing electrochemical anodization. The effects of different fluoride ion concentrations (0.2 and 0.5 wt% NH4F) and different anodization times (2, 5, 10 and 20 h) on the morphology of nanotubes were systematically studied in an organic electrolyte (glycol). The growth mechanisms of amorphous and anatase TiO2 nanotubes were also studied. Under optimized conditions, we obtained TiO2 nanotubes with tube diameters of 70–160 nm and tube lengths of 6.5–45 μm. Serving as free-standing and binder-free electrodes, the kinetic, capacity, and stability performances of TiO2 nanotubes were tested as lithium-ion battery anodes. This work provides a facile strategy for constructing self-organized materials with optimized functionalities for applications.

All-solid-state batteries were fabricated by assembling a layer of self-organized TiO2 nanotubes grown on as anode, a thin-film of polymer as an electrolyte and separator, and a layer of composite LiFePO4 as a cathode. The synthesis of self-organized TiO2 NTs from Ti-6Al-4V alloy was carried out via one-step electrochemical anodization in a fluoride ethylene glycol containing electrolytes. The electrodeposition of the polymer electrolyte onto anatase TiO2 NTs was performed by cyclic voltammetry. The anodized Ti-6Al-4V alloys were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical properties of the anodized Ti-6Al-4V alloys were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry techniques. The full-cell shows a high first-cycle Coulombic efficiency of 96.8% with a capacity retention of 97.4% after 50 cycles and delivers a stable discharge capacity of 63 μAh cm−2 μm−1 (119 mAh g−1) at a kinetic rate of C/10.

The self-organized oxide nanotube/pore layers were prepared by anodization on ternary Ti-6Al-4V alloys. The morphologies and structures of layers under different heat treatment tempreture were characterized by means of SEM, XRD, XPS and Raman spectroscopy and DRS. The effects of alloying element under different heat treatment tempreture on the structure, composition and opsorption property of the film catalysts were investigated along with their inherent relationships. The results show that two kinds of Ti-Al-V-O nanostructure grown inthe α and β phase region formed on the surface of the alloy. V doped-TiO2can inhibit the formation of anatase. The films show the microcrystalline structure of anatase and rutile and a small amount of V2O5on the surface of film annealed at 400 oC. Moreover, the large surface and the synergy effect of V-doped TiO2and V2O5make sample show the highest photocatalytic activity for the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.
