Titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by spray pyrolysis method. The thin films were deposited at three different annealing time; 1, 5 and 10 hours at 400°C. The structural and electrical properties were characterized using FESEM and I-V characteristic. Polycrystalline thin film with anatase crystal structure, as evidenced from X-ray diffraction pattern, was obtained with major reflection along (101). Electrical properties have been studied by means of electrical resistivity. The dark resistivity had been measured as a function of the film thickness, d. The resistivity of samples had been found to decrease with decreasing thickness. Thus, TiO2 is one of the most promising candidates for relatively low cost, simple manufacture for solar cell.

In recent years, the research on organic solar cells systems based on nanocomposite containing conjugated polymers has lead to great attention with the aim or replacing conventional inorganic solar cells. This nanocomposite can be processed at lower cost, low weight and ease of synthesis with greater versatility than todays solar cell. In this study, we investigated the dependence of physical, optical and electrical properties on the thickness of MEH-PPV: TiO2 nanocomposite thin films for organic solar cell application. It was found the optical properties of photo-active layer MEH-PPV: TiO2 nanocomposite thin films improved with increasing its thickness however the electrical properties decreased. The absorption coefficients of photoactive layer are high in the visible region (400-600 nm) with optimum absorption region at 500 nm. The shift of absorption edge toward longer wavelength with increased of nanocomposite photoactive layer thickness due to narrowing band gap caused by the effects of electron-electron and electron-impurity scattering. In addition the study of illuminated current-voltage (I-V) characteristics revealed the increment of recombination process with increased of photoactive layer thicknesses. It was found such increased in resistivity from 136x103 to 1600x103 Ω.cm is closely related to the electric field and exciton dissociation which is decreased with increased photoactive thickness.
