This work focuses on the electrochemical synthesis of polymer-inorganic semiconductor hybrid consisting of
poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and titania nanoparticles (TiO$_2$). The P3HT–TiO$_2$ hybrid was prepared by electropolymerization
of the 3HT monomer in a dichloromethane-tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (CH$_2$Cl$_2$/TBAP) solution containing titania nanoparticles (TiO$_2$).
The hybrid material was electrodeposited on indium-tin oxide (ITO) substrates via cyclic voltammetry method. It was illustrated from scanning electron
microscope observation that the incorporation of TiO$_2$ nanoparticle within P3HT matrix created an interconnected network structure,
which has improved interfacial transport charges. Furthermore, the potentiodynamic results revealed that the electropolymerization process
of P3HT inthe presence of TiO$_2$ was easier and occurred at an early value of 1 V (
