Optimization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film using dip coating technique for oxygen gas sensor

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film gas sensors have been widely used and investigated in the detection of target gases. However, to obtain anatase phase for oxygen gas sensor with low and short annealing temperature is the obstacle in the fabrication of oxygen gas sensor. It is thus desirable to d...
