Synthesis of TiO2 thin films by the SILAR method and study of the influence of annealing on its structural, morphological and optical properties

Preparation and characterization of TiO2 films were made. Films were synthesized on glass substrates by the SILAR (Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction) method. The preparation consisted of 150 cycles of a successive and alternate immersion of substrates in the precursor solution and in di...
