Effect of Postdeposition Heat Treatment on the Crystallinity, Size, and Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 Nanoparticles Produced via Chemical Vapour Deposition

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were produced using chemical vapour deposition (CVD) at different deposition temperatures (300–700°C). All the samples were heat treated at their respective deposition temperatures and at a fixed temperature of 400°C. A scanning electron microscope (SEM), a tran...
