Overview

Synthesis of Ti-doped ZnO films shows high antimicrobial effectiveness against Acinetobacter baumannii and Candida parapsilosis, indicating potential for multifunctional applications.

Key Points

  • Antimicrobial tests revealed a reduction of up to 99.96% of Acinetobacter baumannii after UV light exposure.
  • Structural analysis confirmed the hexagonal wurtzite structure and uniform grain distribution in Ti-doped ZnO films.
  • UV-Vis spectroscopy indicated high transparency above 95% and a reduced optical band gap of 3.17 eV due to lattice strain.
  • Overall, Ti-doped ZnO films present significant antimicrobial activity, suggesting promising applications in various fields.
