The simple reaction of titanium isopropoxide in benzylamine is shown to lead to remarkably complex, highly ordered hybrid structures. These structures consist of anatase nanoplatelets that were stacked in a lamellar fashion with a small organic layer in between. By careful characterization of these structures, we show that indeed solely the benzylamine solvent is present in the organic moiety between the nanocrys-
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
