A method for manufacturing a dye sensitized nanocrystal film having the steps of exposing a tin oxide layer on a surface of a substrate to a flame for a time sufficient to form a layer of mesoporous, crystalline titanium oxide on the fluorinated tin oxide layer followed by sintering the substrate at a temperature of from about 300 to about 500° C. The flame contains a fuel gas, such as ethylene and oxygen and titanium organometallic. The concentration of titanium organometallic is from about 10 to about 2000 ppm. During the flame exposure step, the substrate is rotated about a central axis at a speed of from about 100 to about 600 RPM, and the flame is kept at a constant distance from the surface of the substrate. The temperature of the substrate is maintained at a temperature of less than 200° C. via the rotation and jets of gas.
