Abstract
Semiconductor TiO2 quantum dots sized 2-3 nm have been first synthesized by a simple and facile microwave method. The low/high-magnification TEM images illustrate these TiO2 quantum dots are monodisperse. The TiO2 quantum dots were deposited in acetone quickly and then dissolved in water well, exhibiting reversible process between in water and acetone. We further investigated the enhanced photocatalytic properties in degradation of organic dye under visible light.
