“…Second, the Ti foil was formed by epoxy and connected with conductive wire as an anode-electrode, with a 2 mm × 2 mm electrode area covered by insulating epoxy. Third, the anode-electrode was placed in an electrolyte that consisted of ammonium fluoride, ethylene glycol and high-purity de-ionized water (DI water) [ 17 , 18 ]; only two different ratios of these components were used in this study. The compositions of these two types of electrolyte are shown in Table 1 , where electrolyte baths A and B have different H 2 O contents.…”

“…Titania nanotubes (TNTs) have improved properties compared to any other form of titania for application in water and air purification photocatalysis, sensing, water photoelectrolysis for hydrogen generation, photovoltaics, photoelectrochemical solar cells, electronics, optics, tissue engineering and molecular filtration [ 13 – 18 ]. Titanium dioxide nanotubes and nanotube arrays have been produced by a variety of methods, including deposition into a nanoporous alumina template [ 19 – 22 ], sol–gel transcription using organo-gelators as templates [ 23 , 24 ], seeded growth [ 25 ], and hydrothermal processes [ 26 – 28 ].…”

The purpose of this study was to develop novel nanoscale biosensors using titania nanotubes (TNTs) made by anodization. Titania nanotubes were produced on pure titanium sheets by anodization at room temperature. In this research, the electrolyte composition ethylene glycol 250 mL/NH4F 1.5 g/DI water 20 mL was found to produce the best titania nanotubes array films for application in amperometric biosensors. The amperometric results exhibit an excellent linearity for uric acid (UA) concentrations in the range between 2 and 14 mg/dL, with 23.3 (μA·cm−2)·(mg/dL)−1 UA sensitivity, and a correlation coefficient of 0.993. The glucose biosensor presented a good linear relationship in the lower glucose concentration range between 50 and 125 mg/dL, and the corresponding sensitivity was approximately 249.6 (μA·cm−2)·(100 mg/dL)−1 glucose, with a correlation coefficient of 0.973.

The purpose of this study was to develop the anodized titanium oxide nanotubes (ATONs) as a pH electrode with amperometric and potentiometric method. Titanium oxide nanotubes film was produced on pure titanium piece by titanium anodization at room temperature. The best one ATONs electrode has a linear pH response approximately 53 mV/pH with potentiometric method and 13 A/pH with amperometric method in the concentration range between pH 2 and 12.

“…The inability to coat complex geometries and the utilization of liquid droplets and metal macroparticles are some of the disadvantages of this method [53]. Arc-PVD method is one the methods for fabrication DSSC such as ITO/Cr/DLC (n-type)/Pt (efficiency of 3.30%) [54], TiO 2nanotube array (efficiency of 1.88%) [55], and nanocrystalline titania films (efficiency of 0.90%) [56].…”

Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have attracted numerous research, especially in the context of enhancing their efficiency and durability, due to the low-cost and environmentally friendly nature of photovoltaic (PV) technology. The materials in DSSCs are vital towards the realization of these goals, since many of the important components are influenced by their respective preparation and deposition methods. This review aims to detail the research and development aspects of the different physical methods with the purpose of evaluating their prospects and corresponding limitations. The diversity of consideration and criteria includes thin film applications, material characteristics, and process technology that need to be taken into account when selecting a specific deposition method. Choosing a deposition method is not as simple as it seems and is rendered quite complicated due to various factors. Usually, a researcher will evaluate techniques based on factors such as the different preparations and deposition technology with materials’ and substrates’ type, specified applications, costs, and efficiencies.
