TiO2 thin films were synthesized by using Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method on different substrates, such as glass, aluminium foil , and ceramic. The samples had been characterized by microscopy analysis, SEM, and EDS. The results show that TiO2 thin films were successfully fabricated and TiO2 nanocrystals with size of 50-100 nm loaded uniformly on surface of different substrates. The photocatalytic activities of all samples were investigated in photo-degradation of methyl orange (MO) under UV light irradiation and was followed by the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, showing that the conversion of methyl orange achieved the highest percentage of 91% with TiO2 thin film synthesized on the ceramic substrate over 270 minutes of reaction. The hypothetical mechanism explaining this observation is that the surface morphology of ceramic plays a major role in the augmentation of MO molecules adsorption onto the surface of material, thus, improves the dye degradation process.
