Properties of titania layers fabricated from ball-milled colloid dispersions

This diploma thesis deals with changing properties of the thin layered titanium dioxide dispersion depending on the time of ball-milling. Titanium dioxide is immobilized on glass or conductive glass using the spin-coating method and the prepared thin layers are then characterized by various analytical methods. All of used analytical methods are described in theoretical and experimental sections, these methods include scanning electron microscopy, profilometry, dynamic light scattering, integrating sphere, ellipsometry, BET isotherm, voltammetry and chronoamperometry. At the summary of this diploma thesis is described how the properties of titanium dioxide thin layers change during ball-milling process
