$TiO_2$ thin films were prepared by coating and subsequent pyrolysis processes using Titanium-naphthenate as a raw material. $TiO_2$ thin films were made by spin-coating technique on the glass substrates, and heat treated at 45$0^{circ}C$, The transmittance, refractive index, crystallinity and surface morphology of the $TiO_2$ thin films were measured by UV/Vis spec trophotometer, x-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope. $TiO_2$thin films on the slide glass showed the trans mittance of 70-90% and refractive index of 2.6 at 420 nm. The results of XRD and SEM showed that the $TiO_2$ thin films exhibited the anatase phase and the thread-like surface morphology.
