摘要
Tungsten oxide (WO3) is one of the most promising materials for electrochromic devices. WO3 thin films have been prepared at low temperature by using a polyethylene glycol (PEG) assisted sol-gel method. The structure and the stoichiometry of films deposited by dip coating on glass substrates have been studied as a function of thermal annealing by XRD, FTIR and mu-Raman. PEG-containing samples show improved electrochromic efficiency due to the formation of sub-stoichiometric, nanocrystalline phases. The electrochromic performance of WO3 films gets worse for annealing temperatures higher than 300 degreesC due to massive Na absorption from the substrate. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
