Abstract: This study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films using the sol-gel method. TiO2, known for its exceptional photocatalytic and electrical properties, has gained significant attention in various applications, including photovoltaics, sensors, and optoelectronic devices. The sol-gel approach offers a versatile and cost-effective technique for fabricating high-quality thin films with controlled thickness and uniformity. The TiO2 thin films were deposited onto substrates using a precursor solution, followed by a thermal annealing process to achieve crystallization. The electrical properties of the films were systematically investigated by using static electrical system. Electrical characterizations, including resistivity, TCR and activation energy revealed the potential applications of the TiO2 films in electronic devices. This research work demonstrates the feasibility of using the sol-gel method to develop TiO2 thin films with desirable electrical characteristics, paving the way for their integration into advanced electronic and optoelectronic systems.
