Popis: In this study, using an atmospheric pressure air plasma jet generated by a dielectric barrier structure with hollow electrodes (HEDBS), we developed an ultrafast process for spraying TiO 2 self-cleaning films inside tubular substrates. Importantly, SEM images showed that the TiO 2 particles were dispersed evenly in the tubular substrates. Furthermore, Raman and XRD pattern indicated the anatase structure of the HEDBS-spayed TiO 2 coating after heating at 270 °C. Further results of the self cleaning test suggested that the proposed cost- and time-saving HEDBS approach with air working gas could provide a feasible way for synthesizing thin TiO 2 nanofilms.
