“…The measured values are much lower than those in a bulk crystal, ,− , and show light intensity dependence. ,, The observations have been explained by models based on the electrons diffusing in the conduction band having charge traps. In the model, the electrons spend a large fraction of their transit time at the intraband trap sites. − ,− The origin of trap sites has not been well-understood, but it has been assumed that they could be formed by titanium oxide amorphous layers, oxygen defects, boundaries between particles, and chemical surroundings . Particle synthesis method and annealing temperature are expected to change the trap site distribution and density, and consequently, affect the electron transport properties.…”
