Abstract

Titania with anatase structure is investigated due to its photo-active properties that can be used in the water photocatalysis applications and in the organic photovoltaic devices. In this work the anodization conditions are described to obtain stable thin film TiO2 layers formed from vertically oriented nanotubes with approximate height 358 nm, inner tube diameter 48 nm and wall thickness 20 nm, but centre to centre distance 100 nm. Annealed at 500°C TiO2 layer mostly consists from oxide with anatase structure, though XRD spectroscopy shows rutile impurities as well. Obtained nanotube layers are sensitive mostly to UV light.
