This composite was prepared by hydrothermal method. Phase formation of TiO<sub>2</sub> was characterized by XRD. Morphology of the TiO<sub>2</sub> nanowires powders (NWs) was observed by using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). Optical absorption of the composite had been measured employing UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The result of the physical properties showed a smaller size of Dy/TiO<sub>2</sub>(B) NWs crystal 13.8 nm than of TiO<sub>2</sub>(B) crystal 20.7 nm by the x-ray diffraction test. Only the TiO<sub>2</sub>(B) phase was found at the calcination temperature of 400 °C. The 0.1 mole% dysprosium has good electrical properties. The expected overall properties of Dy/TiO<sub>2</sub>(B) NWs may open the way towards new applications of high performance materials, leading to an innovative product development in the solar cell, electronics batteries and many other applications.</p> ER -
