Abstract

The pure and tungsten doped titanium oxide WxTi1-xO2 (x=0, 0.1) thin films have been successfully deposited on the glass substrate at 400 °C using spray pyrolysis technique. The structural properties of the prepared films were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). From the XRD spectrum, the sample shows the amorphous structure. Their surface morphology was probed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and the mechanical properties, topography and surface roughness of the grown films was investigated by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The functional group and optical characteristic of prepared films were analyzed by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FT-IR) spectroscopy and UV-Vis-double beam spectrometer. The optical energy gap was determined by transmittance measurement.

Highlights

  • In the last several decades, many transition metal oxides have been exploited in many challenging fields of information science, nano biotechnology, and microelectronics, computer science, energy, transportation, safety engineering, military technologies, optoelectronic, electrochromic devices etc

  • In this paper we have reported that the effect of doping of WxTi1-xO2 with x= 0 to 1.0 M thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis technique and its structural, surface morphology, vibrational and optical properties are systematically studied

Summary

Introduction

In the last several decades, many transition metal oxides have been exploited in many challenging fields of information science, nano biotechnology, and microelectronics, computer science, energy, transportation, safety engineering, military technologies, optoelectronic, electrochromic devices etc. Materials capable of persisting and reversible change in color under a reversible electrochemical process are known as electrochromic materials, which have been widely used for the fabrication of optical modulation devices. Among these devices antiglare car rear view mirrors are already commercially available, solar control windows (smart windows) currently drives intensive developments. Tamilnayagam et al /2020 switchable glass that changes light transmission properties with an applied voltage This allows the user to tint their windows, changing the amount of heat or light passing through [1]. For practical electrochromic device still improvement in its EC properties, viz. electrochromic reversibility, stability, etc. is required
