TiO2 thin films have been deposited onto well cleaned glass substrates by sol–gel spin coating method. The prepared TiO2 films have been annealed at different temperatures (350°C, 450°C and 550°C). The structural properties of the films have been studied using X-ray diffraction method and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM). The as-deposited films have been found to be amorphous in nature. The crystalline quality has been observed to improve with annealing temperature. The annealed TiO2 films have been found to exhibit anatase phase. The optical properties have been studied using transmittance spectrum.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) thin films have been prepared on glass substrates by using sol-gel method and spin-coating technique. The samples have been annealed at temperatures of 350°C ~ 500oC. The electrical and structural properties of the thin films due to the changes of annealing treatment process were investigated by 2 point probes I-V measurement and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) respectively. The result show that resistivity of the thin film decreased with annealing temperatures. XRD characterization indicates crystalline structure of TiO2 thin films improved as annealed at higher temperatures.

In this study, we have successfully synthesized Fe3+ doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films on glass substrates using the sol-gel dip-coating method. After synthesizing, the samples were annealed at 5000C in the air for 1 hour. The characteristics and optical properties of Fe3+ doped SiO2/TiO2 films were then investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). An antifogging ability of the glass substrates coated with the fabricated film is investigated and explained by a water contact angle under visible-light. The analyzed results also show that the crystalline phase of TiO2 thin films comprised only the anatase TiO2, but the crystalline size decreased from 8.8 to 5.9 nm. We also observed that the absorption edge of Fe3+- doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films shifted towards longer wavelengths (i.e. red shifted) from 371.7nm to 409.2 nm when the Fe3+-doped concentration increased from 0 to 1 % mol.

TiO2/ZnO nanostructured thin films were grown using sol-gel route. The nanostructured thin films were deposited by dip coating method on glass substrates and calcined at different temperatures (400°C, 500°C, and 600°C). The thin films were characterized using X-Ray Diffraction method (XRD), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), and Ultraviolet Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The XRD pattern showed that the crystallinity of the calcined thin films had improved when the calcination temperature was increased. According to AFM observation and analysis, surface roughness of the thin films controllable via growth condition. While the transmittance percentage of ultraviolet by Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) thin films through UV-Vis could be improved by combination with Zinc Oxide (ZnO). The percentage of transmittance by TiO2/ZnO nanostructured thin films continue to improve as the calcination temperature were increased.

   In this study, titanium dioxide (TiO2 (are synthesized by sol– gel simple method. Thin films of sol, gel, and sol- gel on relatively flat glass substrates are applied with Spin coating technique with multilayers. The optical and morphological properties (studied using AFM) of TiO2 layers show good properties, with particles diameters less than 4 nm for all prepared samples and have maximum length 62 nm for TiO2 gel thin films of three layers. The results show low roughness values for all films especially for 4 layers sol (8.37nm), which improve the application in dye sensitive solar cell (DSSc)         .
