Ar/O plasma irradiation is proposed for post-treatment of vanadium dioxide (VO₂) films. Oxidation and surface migration were observed in the VO₂ films following irradiation. This combined effect leads to an effective stoichiometry refinement and microstructure reconstruction in the interfacial area. A notable improvement in luminous transmittance and an enhancement in phase transition performance of the treated VO₂ films were achieved. Compared with that of as-deposited VO₂ films, the electrical phase transition amplitude of treated films increased more than two-fold. The relative improvement in luminous transmittance (380⁻780 nm) is 47.4% (from 25.1% to 37%) and the increase in solar transmittance is 66.9% (from 29.9% to 49.9%), which is comparable to or better than the previous work using anti-reflection (AR) coatings or doping methods. The interfacial boundary state proved to be crucial and Ar/O plasma irradiation offers an effective approach for further refinement of thermochromic VO₂ films.
有人提出用氩/氧等离子体辐照对二氧化钒(VO₂)薄膜进行后处理。辐照后在VO₂薄膜中观察到了氧化和表面迁移现象。这种综合效应导致界面区域的化学计量比有效细化和微观结构重建。处理后的VO₂薄膜的发光透射率有显著提高,相变性能也得到增强。与沉积态VO₂薄膜相比,处理后薄膜的电相变幅度增加了两倍多。发光透射率(380⁻780纳米)的相对提高为47.4%(从25.1%提高到37%),太阳透射率的增加为66.9%(从29.9%提高到49.9%),这与之前使用抗反射(AR)涂层或掺杂方法的工作相当或更好。界面边界状态被证明至关重要,氩/氧等离子体辐照为进一步优化热致变色VO₂薄膜提供了一种有效方法。
