I want to grow tio2 nanorods using electrodeposition technique using a AAO template. I want to use TiF4 as my starting material. What pH of TiF4 may I use in order to grow tiO2 nanorods?
Previously I successfully deposited TiO2 nanotubes using the electrochemically induced sol-gel method: http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2014/ta/c3ta14551d#!divAbstract. With an AAO pore diameter of 200 nm you'll get these nanotubes, but if you lower the diameter you should be able to obtain nanorods...
I haven't used TiF4 for this, so I don't know what pH you should use.
