One of the reported doping agent to increase TiO2 activity is Cu. In this research, TiO2 was prepared by So-Gel method. Preparation was performed by calcinaton at the temperature range of 400, 500, 600ᵒC for 2 hours with a corresponding dopan concentration of 0%, 1%, 3%, 5% mol of TiO2. The nanoparticle materials was characterized using XRD. It is found that anatase phase occur in the calcinations temperature of 400ᵒC and transform to rutile phase at 500ᵒC. The crystallite size of Cudoped TiO2 with dopan concentration of 5% are found 4.63 nm, 8.70 nm, 6.09 nm respectively at 400ᵒC, 500ᵒC, 600ᵒC.
