This diploma thesis deals with layers of tungsten oxide, which are prepared from a nanoparticle suspension and a binder. The coating composition consisted in the first case of ground tungsten oxide nanoparticles alone, then of acetylated peroxotungstic acid alone and finally of a mixture of ground tungsten oxide mixed with acetylated peroxotungstic acid. The compositions thus formed were applied to conductive FTO glass and thus act as photoanodes. A stainless steel needle is used as a counter electrode for volt-ampere measurements. The work focuses on the study of physicochemical properties of prepared photoanodes and their optimalization in order to obtain the highest possible values of generated photocurrents. The electrical properties of all cells were determined using voltammetric characteristics.
