Effect of Deposition Voltage on Microstructure and Optical Properties of TiO₂ Thin Film via Electrophoretic Deposition

Abstract:

In this study nanocrystalline anatase TiO2 thin films were prepared by electrophoretic deposition of titania sol at various applied voltages. The well-known sol-gel method was used to prepare the titania sol. The influence of applied voltage on the structure, morphology and optical properties of thin films has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results show that the thickness of the films formed on the substrate increases with increasing the applied voltage. However, with increasing the thickness of the films, the cracks increased and the transparency reduced in the visible region.
