Low-density plastic bags waste disposal is a big issue in the current scenario which gives rise to grave threats to human beings and environmental health also. Amid the various approaches applied for dealing with the problem, photocatalytic biodegradation in visible light irradiation is an advanced prospect that has received attention nowadays. The present review paper is to provide an outline of the current progress on the synthesis of titania (TiO2) thin-film photocatalysts for solid waste removal. The Photocatalysis method contains the photoinduced redox reactions in the photocatalyst which facilitates the degrading of almost organic compounds like polyethylene into carbon dioxide (CO2), water, and other substance. One of the most excellent photocatalysts which has grabbed attention in an application is titania because of its high photocatalytic activity and chemical stability. The synthesis of the photocatalyst as a thin film is a result of the unfeasible application of conventional powder photocatalyst which may cause a certain environmental hazard. The photocatalyst-coated thin film along with some environmental applications have also been reviewed. Likewise, various approaches for modifying thin-film property, film deposition techniques, and deposition on various substrates are used for the enhanced photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 thin film.

The energy conversion efficiency (ECE) (η), current density (Jsc), open-circuit voltage (Voc), and fill factor (ff) of perovskite solar cells were studied by using the transmittance of a nanopatterned mesoporous TiO2 (mp-TiO2) thin-film layer. To improve the ECE of perovskite solar cells, a mp-TiO2 thin-film layer was prepared to be used as an electron transport layer (ETL) via the nanoimprinting method for nanopatterning, which was controlled by the aspect ratio. The nanopatterned mp-TiO2 thin-film layer had a uniform and well-designed structure, and the diameter of nanopatterning was 280 nm. The aspect ratio was controlled at the depths of 75, 97, 127, and 167 nm, and the perovskite solar cell was fabricated with different depths. The ECE of the perovskite solar cells with the nanopatterned mp-TiO2 thin-film layer was 14.50%, 15.30%, 15.83%, or 14.24%, which is higher than that of a non-nanopatterned mp-TiO2 thin-film layer (14.07%). The enhancement of ECE was attributed to the transmittance of the nanopatterned mp-TiO2 thin-film layer that is due to the improvement of the electron generation. As a result, better electron generation affected the electron density, and Jsc increased the Voc, and ff of perovskite solar cells.

To achieve self-cleaning at a low maintenance cost, we investigated the possibility of obtaining a sustainable hydrophilic surface of TiO2 thin film. As the hydrophilicity of TiO2 films fabricated by FTS has not yet been studied, we deposited TiOx using FTS, and then TiO2 was formed through additional treatment. Hydrophilic surfaces were obtained by thermoinduced and photoinduced methods. UV irradiation led to the conversion of Ti4+ to Ti3+ in the lattice structure and an increase in the number of OH groups on the surface, and annealing induced the formation of Ti3+ defect sites, as well as organic degradation and changes in the crystal structure. Through the annealing process, the water contact angle of as-deposited film was decreased from 78.7° to 35.7°, and crystallinity changed from amorphous to anatase. These changes contributed to the formation of a hydrophilic surface and reduced the water contact angle by up to 10.8°. After the formation of a hydrophilic surface through annealing and UV irradiation, the sample returned to its original state. We confirmed that the water contact angle of the returned sample was decreased through exposure to sunlight; it reduced the water contact angle of the returned sample by 15.2°. Thus, the results revealed that the crystallinity influences the hydrophilicity and its sustainability for TiO2 films under sunlight.
