TiO2 thin films were prepared by DC reactive magnetron sputtering on heated Si, quartz and glass substrates using O2 and water vapor as reactive gases. The percentage of anatase and rutile as well as the grain size strongly depend on the deposition conditions, as revealed by X-ray diffraction patterns. The films deposited on Si substrates are pure rutile, while a mixed anatase/rutile structure occurs in the films deposited on glass and quartz substrates. Smaller grain rutile and anatase films were prepared in a water vapor atmosphere, in contrast to the films grown in oxygen. The former choice considerably increases the sensing properties of titanium dioxide films. The gas sensitivity was investigated for some reducing gases (methane, acetone, ethanol and liquefied petroleum gas) and the optimum operating temperatures were found.
