Layer-by-layer assembly of titania nanoparticles based ionic networks

Recently nanoparticles ionic networks were reported in the frame of the remarkable development of new inorganic-organic hybrid materials based on nanoparticles assembly. In this article a layer-by-layer deposition method for the formation of imidazolium-based assemblies of photocatalytic titania nanoparticles is presented. This provides a new route for the controlled processing of this promising class of materials.
