TiO2 nanorings were synthesized using the polystyrene nanospheres of 85 nm prepared by micro-emulsion polymerization as template. The result TiO2 nanorings were characterized by FE-SEM and XRD. Results showed that the inner diameter of the TiO2 nanorings matched size of the polystyrene nanospheres used, and the thickness with nanometer size depended on that of the TiO2 gel coated on the PS surface.
