Synthesis of Branched Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes from Titanium Films Deposited on Planar Substrates

Abstract
In this work, we report for the first time, the synthesis of branched titanium dioxide nanotubes on planar glass substrates. The nanotubes were synthesized using electrochemical anodization technique. The branched morphology was obtained by dynamically changing the anodization potential. The nanotubes were characterized for their morphology at anodization potential varying from 10 to 60 V. Tauc plot showed a band gap of 3.25 eV and x-ray diffraction peaks showed the presence of anatase phase in the nanotubes. Keywords - TiO2 Nanotubes, Branched Nanotubes, Thin Film, Planar Substrates.
