The atomic arrangement of titanium and oxygen on crystalline anatase TiO2 formulates various facets, dominating the TiO2 surface chemistry. Due to its unique surface atomic structure, TiO2 with high-index facets has received great interest from a wide spectrum of science. Insights gained from the intricate link between the morphological modulation of anatase TiO2 with distinct high-index facets and the properties of these modifications can expedite the rational fabrication of functional crystals. This review succinctly presents the recent impressive progress on the manipulation of high-index facets of anatase TiO2, focusing on the comparison of surface energies. In addition, the rational synthesis and the fascinating performance of both high-index terminated pristine anatase TiO2 and its modified surfaces are collectively discussed. Finally, the perspective of ongoing research on high-index bounded anatase TiO2 is addressed.
