Abstract

TiO2 layers and nanolayers are widely studied due to its technological applications. This material could be used in solar cells, transmission, emission or selective reflection, among other applications. In this paper, we show a characterization of layers of TiO2 grown by two different methods, Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) at atmospheric pressure and spray pyrolysis (SP). The samples were characterized by SEM, EDS, AFM, XRD and Raman Spectrometry.
