Ph sensitivity dependency on the annealing temperature of spin-coated titanium dioxide thin films

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films were fabricated on indium tin oxide (ITO)
glass substrates using the spin coating technique and further were
implemented as sensing membranes of the extended gate field effect
transistor (EGFET) based pH sensor. The as-deposited thin films were
annealed at different temperatures from 200 - 600 °C in room ambient for 20
min. The effects of different annealing temperatures on electrical and
crystalline properties were analyzed by I-V two point probes measurement
and X-ray diffraction respectively. Meanwhile, the surface morphology of
thin films was observed by field emission scanning electron microscope
(FESEM). We then measured the transfer characteristics (ID-VG) of the
TiO2/ITO sensing membrane using a semiconductor parametric device
analyzer for sensor characterization. It was found that, TiO2/ITO sensing
membrane annealed at 300 °C achieved higher sensitivity and good
linearity of 51.48 mV/pH and 0.99415, respectively in the pH buffer solutions
of 4, 7, 10, and 12. Thin film annealed at 300 °C gives higher conductivity
thin film of 384.62 S/m. We found that the conductivity of TiO2/ITO thin films
was proportional with the sensitivity of sensing membrane.
