Shilei Zhu et al.

Summary: Black TiO2 nanoparticles (b-TiO2) with superior solar-thermal water evaporation performance were prepared using a one-step solution plasma process (SPP). Radicals generated during SPP played a critical role in b-TiO2 formation, with a two-step mechanism proposed for its synthesis.
