Abstract
The focus of this work is to study the effect of Sn doping and V doping on structural, surface morphological, optical and hydrophilic properties of TiO2 thin films. The pure and doped TiO2 thin films were prepared using a sol gel synthesis. The XRD studies reveal that the Sn and V doping decrease the crystalline size and formation both of anatase and rutile phases of TiO2 at 500 °C (Sn = 5 mol%, V = 15 mol%). Accordingly, the thin films showed various water contact angles and optical band gaps. As, the optical band gap of the nanostructured thin films decreased with various content of dopant from 3.38 to 2.33 eV. Moreover, the water contact angles changed from 69.0° to 0°.
