In-plane mechanical response of TiO2 nano-tube arrays is intrinsically characterized by very low elastic moduli and significant damping, while both are strongly affected by presence of adsorbates. These findings suggest use of TiO2 nanotube arrays as novel types of sensors, actuators as well as highly stretchable coatings in biomedical applications.
TiO2 纳米管阵列的面内力学响应具有固有特征,表现为极低的弹性模量和显著的阻尼,而这两者都受到吸附物的强烈影响。这些发现表明 TiO2 纳米管阵列可作为新型传感器、驱动器以及在生物医学应用中具有高拉伸性的涂层。
