Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film on glass substrate is fabricated by sol-gel method. The TiO2 film is sintered at various temperatures for investigation on the refraction index and crystallization characteristic. The lower refractive index of the TiO2 thin film is 1.89 when the sintering is performed at the low temperature of 200°C and the thickness is 448 nm. However, the higher refractive index of 2.55 and chemical stability of the TiO2 film in rutile phase are obtained via sintering temperature at 700°C.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) paste was prepared by sol-gel and hydrothermal method with various precursors. Nanostructured mesoporous TiO2thin-film back electrode was fabricated from the nanoparticle colloidal paste, and its performance was compared with that made of commercial P25 TiO2. The best performance was demonstrated by the DSSC having a 16 μm-thick TTIP-TiO2back electrode, which gave a solar energy conversion efficiency of 6.03%. The ability of stong adhesion on ITO conducting glass substrate and the high surface area are considered important characteristics of TiO2thin film. The results show that a thin film with good adhesion can be made from the prepared colloidal paste as a result of alleviating the possibility of electron transfer loss. One can control the colloidal particle size from sol-gel method. Therefore, by optimizing the preparation conditions, TiO2paste with nanoparticle and narrow diameter distribution was obtained.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films based interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) have been synthesized using sol-gel method with hydrochloric acid (HCl) as catalyst. The prepared TiO2 solution has been deposited onto silicon dioxide (SiO2) substrates via spin-coating technique. Film was annealed at 500 °C and aluminium (Al) IDEs have been fabricated. Finally the X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows high intensity of both anatase and rutile peaks exist on 10 nm TiO2 thin film. Average crystallite size of the nanoparticles is seen to be 25 nm. UvVisible spectroscopic (UvVis) technique was used for the transmittance spectra characterization of the sample.
