Both opaque and transparent TiO2 nanocrystalline thin films were developed on glass
substrates by applying dip coating and doctor-blade deposition techniques, using titanium
(IV) butoxide and Degussa P25 TiO2 powder as precursor and starting material,
respectively. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
evaluated the surface characteristics of the films. Results on their structure and crystallinity
were obtained by means of X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The catalytic activity …
