Electrical and Electrochromic Characterization of Poly(ethylene Oxide)/Molybdenum Doped Vanadium Pentoxide Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

The hybrid guest-host nanocomposite films based on poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and molybdenum doped vanadium pentoxide (V0.975Mo0.025)2O5nH2O were prepared by sol-gel and hydrothermal reaction via a two-part process. The electrical properties along and across V-O layers have been evaluated. The results indicate that the proper amount of PEO can increase the electrical conductivity of the films. The electrochromism of the films were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, the ex-situ transmission spectra and photographs. The films display a reversible multichromism (orangegreenbluebrown) upon Li+ ion insertion/extraction.
