The TiO2: Sb nanoscale thin films were deposited on glass substrates by the sol–gel dip-coating method. The influence of the dopant density on the structure and the phase transformation of the thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectra. From the results of XRD, the thi...
