Abstract

TiO2 thin films have been obtained by a dip-coating method on Ti and SnO2 (F). Structural and physicals properties of the films have been examined for different number of dips and annealing at a temperature of 723 K.

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X rays diffraction (XRD have been used to characterize the films morphology and composition. These films are anatase phase and nano-metric with a grain size of 18 to40 nm.

The photo catalytic activity of the nano-structured TiO2 thin films were evaluated by the degradation of solo phenyl red 3BL and compared with that obtained using P25 TiO2.
