摘要
The TiO2 layers prepared by anodic oxidative hydrolysis of TiCl3 on electrically conducting supports (Pt, C, SnO2, etc.) consist of extremely small particles (1-2 nm), partly crosslinked into 2-30-nm big aggregates. Particle size influences the UV absorption spectra, flatband potential, and anodic photocurrent action spectra as expected for size-quantization effects. Upon heating, the particles grew, but if the layer thickness is below ca. 30-100 nm, size effects remain apparent even after annealing at 450-degrees-C.
