The influence of electrochemical conditions and the heat treatment on the crystal structure and the microstructure evolution of TiO2 based nanotubes synthesized by the self-ordering anodization process is investigated in this work. The electrochemical anodization was performed at room temperature, for 30 minutes under 15, 20 and 25 V, with stirring. The as-anodized Ti foils were annealed in air at 450, 600, 650 and 700 °C for 30 minutes. The structure and the lattice dynamics of the samples has been studied by using XRD and Raman spectroscopy methods. The microstructure development of the 1-D TiO2 nanostructures has been analyzed by FESEM
