Ordered aggregated BaTiO(3) nanocubes with a narrow size distribution were obtained in an aqueous process by using bis(ammonium lactate) titanium dihydroxide (TALH) as Ti source in the presence of oleic acid and tert-butylamine. Kinetics of the formation of BaTiO(3) nanocubes indicated that an in situ growth mechanism was dominant and the superlattice of nanocubes formed in situ through the growth of BaTiO(3) nanoparticles in Ti-based hydrous gel. The size and morphology of nanocubes were controlled by tuning the concentration and molar ratio of surfactants. A novel growth model dependant on the structure of Ti precursor for the formation and morphology control of BaTiO(3) nanocubes and their superlattice was demonstrated.

Lactic acid (LA) accumulation in the tumor microenvironment poses notable challenges to effective tumor immunotherapy. Here, an intelligent tumor treatment microrobot based on the unique physiological structure and metabolic characteristics of (VA) is proposed by loading cell membrane-coating BaTiO nanocubes (SAM@BTO) on the surface of VA cells (VA-SAM@BTO) via click chemical reaction. Following oral administration, VA-SAM@BTO accurately targeted orthotopic colorectal cancer through inflammatory targeting of SAM and hypoxic targeting of VA.

BaTiO-CaTiO and SrTiO-BaTiO core-shell nanocubes were synthesized through the surface reconstruction of BaTiO nanocubes, which involved the reaction of titanium oxide with Ca(OH), Sr(OH), or Sr(OH)·8HO in water at 100 °C. The core-shell structure comprised a BaTiO nanocube core and a CaTiO or SrTiO shell. The outermost layer with a perovskite structure also comprised CaTiO or SrTiO, and its thickness was several hundred picometers.

The recombination of photoinduced carriers in photocatalysts is considered one of the biggest barriers to the increase of photocatalytic efficiency. Piezoelectric photocatalysts open a new route to realize rapid carrier separation by mechanically distorting the lattice of piezoelectric nanocrystals to form a piezoelectric potential within the nanocrystals, generally requiring external force (e.g.

Harvesting ambient mechanical energy at the nanometric scale holds great promise for powering small electronics and achieving self-powered electronic devices. The current review is focused on kinetic energy harvesters, particularly on flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (p-NGs) based on barium titanate (BaTiO) nanomaterials. p-NGs based on nanotubes, nanowires, nanofibres, nanoplatelets, nanocubes or nanoparticles of BaTiO fabricated in vertical or lateral orientation, as well as mixed composite structures, are overviewed here.

We constructed millimeter-wide monolayers consisting of tetragonally ordered BaTiO (BT) nanocubes through the liquid film formation caused by the Marangoni flow in a toluene-hexane binary liquid containing oleic acid. A thin liquid film containing BT nanocubes was overspread on a standing silicon substrate through the condensation of toluene at the advancing front after the preferential evaporation of hexane. Then, the oscillatory droplet formation like "wineglass tears" occurred on the substrate.
