A structural gradient of TiO2 nanotube arrays (TiO2 NTAs) on medical titanium has been constructed by pull-stop-pull together with electrochemical anodization. The formation mechanism of TiO2 NTAs with different nanostructures formed on a single titanium surface was discussed. It was found that the...
