Title Of Article :
The electrical and optical properties of TiO_2 reinforced by carbon nanotubes
Abstract :
In this study, Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) synthesized with Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) were reinforced with 0.1, 0.2, 1 and 2% weight in Titanium dioxide (TiO_2). Structural characterization of samples was analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Electrical conductivities of samples, based on temperature, were surveyed. Optical properties were determined using UV-VIS spectrometer. Increase in CNT rate in composites caused electrical conductivity both room and rising temperature. Furthermore, CNT caused the increases in ability of TiO_2 s to absorb UV beam, and the reduces on forbidden energy gap (Eg).
