摘要
Titanic acid nanotubes(H_(2)Ti_(2)O_(4)(OH)_(2))were surface-modified with cetyl alcohol through dehydration reaction because of existence of Ti–OH.The modified nanotubes were characterized by transmission electron microscopy(TEM),Fourier Transform Infrared(FT-IR)spectrometry and pho-toluminescence(PL)spectra.The results indicate that the modified nanotubes can be easily dis-persed into organic solvent such as chloroform and toluene in contrast with the unmodified nanotubes,which makes it easier to be assembled by LB technique.Moreover,the Ti-O-CH_(2)(CH_(2))_(14)CH_(3) on the surface of the nanotubes can hinder the adsorption of water and consequently the photoluminescence property of the nanotubes can be stabilized.Even though kept in humid condition or in air for a long time,the modified nanotubes also maintain the special photoluminescence property in the visible region.
