Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for a fabricating porous TiO2 thin film by utilizing nano-crystalline TiO2 hydrosol, belonging to the technical field of fabrication process of inorganic metal oxide porous thin film. The fabricating steps of the method are as follows: (1), preparation of nano-crystalline TiO2 hydrosol: titanium salt used as raw material is complexed with ammonia water, extractionfiltered, washed, and dissolved in different solvents, and then H2O2 is added thereinto to dissolve colloid to obtain different crystallization results; the sol is transferred to a high-pressure reaction kettle, crystallized for 8-15 hours at temperature of between 100 and 200 DEG C, and extraction filtered and ultrasonic dispersed in water to obtain nano-crystalline TiO2 hydrosol; (2), fabrication of the porous TiO2 thin film: the porous thin film is obtained by directly coating the hydrosol onto a matrix at low temperature. The TiO2 hydrosol prepared by the invention has high crystallization degree, good dispersity, and controllable sol shape; surface of the porous thin film is flat and even with good adhesion.
