Synthesized titanium oxide nanotubes from titanium raw materials are efficient nanoreactors for photocatalysis in comparison with macroanalogues. The dependence of the geometry of titanium oxide structures on the redistribution of the density of electronic states was studied. The presence of natural iron ligands leads to the appearance of midgap states inside the bandgap of titanium oxide.
