Structural parameters, morphology, composition and surface features of the films were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDAX,XPS, AFM and Raman spectroscopy. The films were orthorhombic in structure with preferred orientation along(0 1 0) plane. Morphology analysis reveals randomly aligned nanobelts with 40 nm in thickness and a width of 800 nm and 3–12 mm in length. The disks have 1.5 μm diameters, 1 μm thickness and hexagonal rod-like nanostructures with a length, breath and width of 2 μm, 1 μm and 100 nm are formed. The samples were investigated under dark and photocurrent conditions in HSOaqueous solution as a function of applied potential. The photocurrent density of samples prepared on ITO and FTO substrate samples were compared and the results are discussed.展开更多
