contents Low dimensional materials are critical for enabling next generation applications that are central to addressing critical global challenges. Titanium dioxide nanostructures stand out due to their structural versatility and relevance to catalysis, energy conversion, and environmental remediation. Here, we employ a combination of advanced electron microscopy, spectroscopy, and first principles theoretical calculations to investigate the structural and chemical properties of one and two dimensional lepidocrocite type titania. Special emphasis is placed on the one dimensional material, which exhibits anisotropic growth, extending exclusively along a single crystallographic direction. Our analysis suggests that this unusual growth behavior can be attributed to light element impurities, such as carbon, that are incorporated during the bottom up synthesis. The results extend the understanding for these unexplored low dimensional titania materials and offer fundamental insights into their structure and chemistry.
