TiO2 thin film growth using the MOCVD method

Titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films were obtained using the MOCVD method. In this report we discuss the properties of a film, produced using a ordinary deposition apparatus, as a function of the deposition time, with constant deposition temperature (90 °C), oxygen flow (7,0 L/min) and substrate temperature (400 °C). The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and visible and ultra-violet region spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The films deposited on Si (100) substrates showed the anatase polycrystalline phase, while the films ...
