Amorphous VO (a-VO ) colloids were synthesized by electrochemical anodic oxidation of metallic vanadium. It was found that the a-VO colloids have a cotton-like morphology composed of very small clusters, and that the crystallization temperature of the a-VO colloids can be adjusted either by the electrolyte of the anodic oxidation or/and the dispersion agent of the colloids. VO (M) nanoparticles (NPs) (and a NP film) with an average size of about 50 nm can be obtained by a rapid thermal annealing of the a-VO colloids at 310 °C under air, which is beneficial for practical applications. The VO (M) NP film shows an obvious metal-semiconductor transition with a resistance less than 10 Ω in the metallic state. An integral visible transmittance of 40.7 %, a solar transmittance modulation of 9.4 %, and a resistance modulation in the order of 5×10 were realized in the VO (M) NP film.
通过金属钒的电化学阳极氧化合成了非晶态VO(a-VO)胶体。发现a-VO胶体具有由非常小的簇组成的棉状形态,并且a-VO胶体的结晶温度可以通过阳极氧化的电解质或/和胶体的分散剂来调节。通过在空气中于310°C对a-VO胶体进行快速热退火,可以获得平均尺寸约为50nm的VO(M)纳米颗粒(NPs)(以及NP膜),这有利于实际应用。VO(M)NP膜显示出明显的金属-半导体转变,在金属态下电阻小于10Ω。VO(M)NP膜实现了40.7%的整体可见光透射率、9.4%的太阳透射率调制以及5×10量级的电阻调制。
