We demonstrate significant improvement in the optical efficiency of the photocatalytic nanoparticles as we reduce the particle size.EnglishNanoparticlesOptical filmsOptical saturationBiomedical optical imagingContaminationSize effect in optical activation of TiO2 nanoparticles in photocatalytic processConference Paper10.1109/LEOS.2006.278763
