title: Opal gel templated synthesis of oblate titania opal materials.
abstract: Ordered arrays of oblate titania bodies were template synthesized using opal gel templates under uniaxial compression at ambient temperature during the favorable titania sol/gel process. The aspect ratio was controllable by the compression degree.
