Abstract: | Photoanodes were fabricated from TiO2 films deposited onto titanium substrates by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The photocurrent-wavelength and photocurrent-voltage properties of the anodes were determined and compared with those of thermally grown TiO2 photoanodes. The plasma-deposited photoanodes displayed quantum efficiencies higher than those for the thermally grown films and comparable with those reported for single-crystal rutile. The microstructure of the plasma-deposited films appeared to be primarily responsible for the high quantum efficiencies. |
