In this work, the effect of substrate temperature on structural and optical properties of V2O5 thin films has been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD); SEM and transmission. The films mince has been prepared by Reactive Chemical Spraying technology in Liquid Phase (RCSLP) on glass substrates preheated at (350, 400, 450 and 500 °C). The X-ray diffraction analysis confirms that all layers are polycrystalline, and the preferred orientation of V2O5 is the (001) plane. The morphology of V2O5 thin films are porous nature and their particle’s shape is three-dimensional. The transmittance and absorbance of thin film were measured from which the optical constants (Energy gap, Refractive index, Absorption coefficient, Extinction coefficient and Optical dielectric constant) were determined.
In this work, we have studied the Mo effect on V2O5 thin films, the samples were deposited by spray pyrolysis technique on heated glass substrates at 500 °C. The dopant amount was varied at different concentration, 2%, 4% and 6%. Different techniques were carried out, in order to studied the Mo effect on V2O5, such as XRD, Raman, SEM, AFM and electrochemical analysis. From the obtained results, all the samples exhibited orthorhombic structure with (001) predominant orientation. The optical properties of Mo concentration effect were studied in their colored and discolored states. These electrochemical studies were performed in LiClO4 electrolyte with 0.5 mol/L of C4H6O3. The transmittance value of the samples decreased from 76% to 10% at 690 nm, when the samples have changed color, from colored state to discolored state respectively.
