TiO₂/PDA Multilayer Nanocomposites with Exceptionally Sharp Large-Scale Interfaces and Nitrogen Doping Gradient.

ABSTRACT: The evolving field of photocatalysis requires the development of new functional materials, particularly those suitable for large-scale commercial systems. One particularly promising approach is the creation of hybrid organic/inorganic materials. Despite being extensively studied, materials such as polydopamine (PDA) and titanium oxide continue to show significant promise for use in such applications. Nitrogen-doped titanium oxide and free-standing PDA films obtained at the air/water interface are particularly interesting. This study introduces a straightforward and reproducible approach for synthesizing a novel class of large-scale multilayer nanocomposites. The method involves the alternate layering of high-quality materials at the air/water interface combined with precise atomic layer de
