This work reports a chemical solution sensitization of HgS nanocrystals on mesoporous TiO2 films for different deposition times. The adsorption of the precursor ions and the surface growth of the crystal were found to be affected during the temporal deposition of the HgS over spin-coated TiO2 films. The synthesized electrodes were characterized by structural, morphological, wettability, optical, photovoltaic, and electrochemical performances. The results designate the qualitative confirmation of the TiO2/HgS heterojunction formation, and the combination is explored for the photovoltaic application, which is first of its kind.
