Abstract

Titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) thin films were synthesized on polymer insulator and Si substrates by atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. The surface and electrical properties of $TiO_2$ films synthesized at various ALD cycle numbers were investigated. The synthesized $TiO_2$ films exhibited higher contact angle and smooth surface. The contact angle of $TiO_2$ films was increased with the increase of ALD-cycle number. Also, the rms surface roughness of films was slightly rough with the increase of ALD-cycle number. The leakage current on $TiO_2$ film surface synthesized at various conditions were uniformed, and the values were decreased with the increase of ALD-cycle number. In the results, the performance of $TiO_2$ films for self-cleaning critically depended on a number of ALD-cycle.
