Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were synthesized using a $0.25cm^2$ area of a $TiO_2$ nanoparticle layer as the electrode and platinum (Pt) as the counter electrode. The $TiO_2$ nanoparticle layers (12 to 22 ${\mu}m$) were screen-printed on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass. Glancing angle X-ray diffraction results indicated that the $TiO_2$ layer is composed of pure anatase with no traces of rutile $TiO_2$. The Pt counter electrode and the ruthenium dye anchored $TiO_2$ electrode were then assembled. The best photovoltaic performance of DSSC, which consists of a $18{\mu}m$ thick $TiO_2$ nanoparticle layer, was observed at a short circuit current density ($J_{sc}$) of $14.68mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$, an open circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$) of 0.72V, a fill factor (FF) of 63.0%, and an energy conversion efficiency (${\eta}$) of 6.65%. It can be concluded that the electrode thickness is attributed to the energy conversion efficiency of DSSCs.

On the synthesis of Au/$TiO_2$ core-shell structure nanoparticle, the effect of concentration of $Ti^{4+}$ and reaction temperature on the morphology and optical property of Au/$TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticles is examined. A gold colloid was prepared by $HAuCl_4{\cdot}4H_2O\;and\;C_6H_5Na_3{\cdot}2H_2O$. Titanium stock solution was prepared by mixing solution of titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TTIP) and triethanolamine (TEOA). The concentrations of $Ti^{4+}$ stock solution were adjusted to $10.01{\sim}0.3$ mM, and then the gold colloid is added to the $Ti^{4+}$ stock solution. Au/$TiO_2$ core-shell structure nanoparticles could be prepared by the hydrolysis of the $Ti^{4+}$ stock solution at $80^{\circ}C$. The size of synthesized Au nanoparticles was 15 nm. The thickness of $TiO_2$ shell on the surface of gold particles was about 10 nm. The absorption peak of synthesized Au/$TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticles shifted towards the red end of the spectrum by about 3 nm because of the formation of $TiO_2$ shell on the surface of gold particles. The good $TiO_2$ shell is produced when $Ti^{4+}$ concentration is varied between 0.01 and 0.05 mM, and reaction temperature is maintained at $80^{\circ}C$. The crystal structure of $TiO_2$ shell was amorphous.

$TiO_2$ nanoparticles can be used to improve the performance of carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resin composites. In this study, the effect of the size of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resin composites was investigated. The size of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles was easily controlled using heat treatment. The size of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles for this study were20nm, 100nm, and 200nm. Three types of carbon fibers with different diameters were also used in this study. The carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resin composites with 20-nm $TiO_2$ powder showed the highest tensile strength compared to the other types of CFRP, regardless of the fiber maker or fiber diameter. The size of the $TiO_2$ powder and the diameter of the carbon fiber strongly affected the interfacial properties of all kinds of CFRP in this study.

[ $TiO_2$ ] nanoparticle was synthesized by the flame method, which was controlled by varying the ratio and flow rate of gas mixtures consisting of oxygen (oxidizer), methane (fuel) and nitrogen (carrier gas). The crystalline phases of $TiO_2$ nanoparticle depended strongly on the temperature distribution in the flame, whereas the morphology was not sensitive. We proved that the anatase phase formed without the phase transformation in the flame and the rutile phase generated through several phase transformations.

본 연구에서는 $CeO_2$ 표면에 $Ti(SO_4)_2$의 가수 분해를 이용하여 $TiO_2$를 성장시켜 코어-쉘 구조를 가지는 세라믹 나노입자를 합성 하였다. $CeO_2/TiO_2$ 코어-쉘 합성에서는 $CeO_2:TiO_2$의 몰비, 반응 시간, 반응 온도, $CeO_2$ 슬러리 농도, $Ti(SO_4)_2$의 pH 조절을 통하여 코어-쉘 구조를 가지는 최적의 합성 조건을 찾았다. $CeO_2:TiO_2$의 최적의 몰비는 1:0.2~1.1, 최적의 반응 시간은 24 시간, 최적의 $CeO_2$ 슬러리 농도는 1%, 최적의 반응 온도는 $50^{\circ}C$임을 알 수 있었다. $NH_4OH$ 수용액을 이용하여 $Ti(SO_4)_2$ 의 pH를 1로 맞추어 $CeO_2$ 슬러리에 적하하면 10%의 농도를 가지는 $CeO_2$ 슬러리에서도 $CeO_2/TiO_2$ 코어-쉘 나노 입자를 합성할 수 있었다. $80^{\circ}C$이상의 높은 온도에서 반응을 시키면 $CeO_2/TiO_2$ 코어-쉘 구조가 아닌 독립된 $TiO_2$ 나노 입자를 형성함을 알 수 있었다. 최적의 반응 온도는 $50^{\circ}C$로서 가장 좋은 구조의 $CeO_2/TiO_2$ 코어-쉘이 합성되었다.

A solution processed polymer tandem cell has been fabricated by using the organic layer coated crystalline $TiO_2$ nanoparticle inter layer. The highly dispersive OL-$TiO_2$ has several advantages in terms of excellent film forming property, crystallinity, optical transparency, and well defined chemical composition. The surface morphology of the $TiO_2$ thin film was found to play a crucial role in the performance of the polymer tandem cell. The stability of the tandem cell, utilizing dense $TiO_2$ nanoparticles inter layer, was superior to the stability of the single junction cell.

A simple approach to prepare arrays of Au/TiO2 composite nanoparticles by using Au-loaded block copolymers as templates combined with a sol-gel process is described. The organic-inorganic hybrid films with closely packed inorganic nanodomains in organic matrix are produced by spin coating the mixtures of polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO)/HAuCl4 solution and sol-gel precursor solution. After removal of the organic matrix with deep UV irradiation, arrays of Au/TiO2 composite nanoparticles with different compositions or particle sizes can be easily produced. Different photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra from an organic-inorganic hybrid film and arrays of Au/TiO2 composite nanoparticles indicate that TiO2 and Au components exist as separate state in the initial hybrid film and form composite nanoparticles after the removal of the block copolymer matrix.
