Abstract

Vanadium oxide (V₂O₅) mixed titanium oxide (TiO ₂) and zirconium oxide (ZrO₂) thin films were fabricated on glass substrates (corning 2947) and on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates by sol gel spin coating process. Their optical, structural and electrochromic properties were investigated. The results were compared with pure TiO₂ and ZrO₂ thin films. Mixture of V₂O ₅ with both types of film reduces the transmittance at the higher wavelengths. The refractive index of the V₂O₅ mixed TiO₂ and ZrO₂ films increases when compared with pure TiO₂ and ZrO₂ films. AFM images demonstrate no significant topographical changes for V₂O₅ mixed TiO₂ whereas for V₂O₅ mixed ZrO₂ films a topographical change is observed. V₂O₅ mixed TiO ₂ showed slight increase in their charge capacity.
