Surface refractive index sensor based on titanium dioxide composite thin film for detection of cadmium ions

In this work, a refractive index sensor using TiO2 extracted from moringa leaves-based nanocomposite thin film was developed to detect cadmium ions in an aqueous solution. The experimental results showed a good sensitivity response of 0.4825° ppm−1, a strong binding affinity of 1.4362 ppm−1, and a l...
