Structure and Properties of V_2O_5 Thin Films Prepared by Electrophoresis Deposition

将V2O5溶胶电泳沉积在ITO导电基片上制备V2O5薄膜.运用X射线衍射和扫描电镜对薄膜的结构进行分析,通过紫外-可见光透射光谱和循环伏安法分别测试其光学和电化学性能.实验结果表明,电泳沉积V2O5薄膜具有致密的显微结构,薄膜厚度均匀、与基片的粘附性很好;循环实验中,薄膜呈现黄色到绿色的可逆变化,最大的透射率变化达到30%左右;薄膜具有很好的注入/退出可逆性和循环稳定性,50次循环效率仍能达到88.02%,并且循环后的薄膜与ITO导电玻璃的粘附性仍然很好,没有溶解现象;应用交流阻抗法计算Li+在V2O5薄膜着色过程的扩散系数为5.10×10-12cm2/s,表明该薄膜可以作为电致变色材料得到应用.

V2O5 thin films were successfully prepared on ITO substrate with electrophoresis deposition （EDP） through V2O5 sol. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used for studying the structure of the films. The optical and electrochemical properties were measured by the transmittance spectra and cyclic voltammetry measurements, respectively. It is found that V2O5 thin films deposited by EDP are a compact microstructure with finer adhesive force with ITO substrate and the thickness is uniform. During the cycle experiment, the films exhibited reversible two-color （yellow at oxidation and green at reduction） with a maximum transmittance change of around 30%. Moreover, the films had an excellent cycle for lithium intercalation/ deintercalation and good cycle stability, the cycle efficiency for the 50th cycle was 88.02% and the films still had fine adhesive force with ITO substrate with no dissolving over more than 50 cycles. The Li^＋ diffusion coefficient in V2O5 thin film was 5.10 ×10^-12cm^2/s by the electrochemical impedance spectra method. All results indicate that V2O5 thin films by the electrophoresis deposition may be suitable for the use in the electrochromic devices.
