Optical Properties of TiO2 Thin Films

Comparison of the heat-treatment effect on carrier dynamics in TiO2 thin films deposited by different methods

“…However, the HT TiO 2 does not absorb in the visible part of the spectrum and thus cannot become more transparent. The only feasible explanation for this observation is that the photo-excitation reduces the sample refractive index, and this results in the reduced amount of the light reflected from the sample surface and the increased amount of transmitted light 29 . This is interpreted by the measurement system as a decrease in the sample absorbance.…”

Metal Oxide-Based Photocatalytic Paper: A Green Alternative for Environmental Remediation

“…In terms of nanomaterials, TiO 2 nanowires, nanorods, nanofibers, nanotubes, nanobelts, nanowhiskers, nanospheres, and nanoflowers, among others, have been described (Figure 4) [36][37][38][151][152][153][154][155][156]. TiO 2 thin films have been also largely investigated [157][158][159]. Various techniques have been reported for producing TiO 2 nanostructures or thin films including wet-chemical techniques [160,161], the sol-gel method [84,158], thermal evaporation [162], magnetron sputtering [163,164], anodization [165,166], electrodeposition [167,168], the gas jet fiber spinning process [103], electrospinning [104,169], hydrothermal and solvothermal synthesis [170][171][172][173], and microwave irradiation [15,36,38], among several other methods.…”

Delving into the properties of polymer nanocomposites with distinctive nano-particle quantities, for the enhancement of optoelectronic devices

“…Titanium dioxide or Titania is currently the focus of intense research due to their interesting chemical, electrical and optical properties [ 12 ]. Titania can be found in four different structures anatase, rutile, brookite and TiO₂ (B) [ 13 ].…”
