Abstract
In the present study, Fe-doped V 2 O 5 films showing impressive electrochromic (EC) performance were developed using the sol-gel spin-coating method. To confirm the optimized Fe-doping effect on the V 2 O 5 films for the EC performance, we adjusted the Fe atomic percentages to 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 at%, respectively. With the effect of Fe doping on the V 2 O 5 films, the obtained films resulted in the formation of the oxygen vacancies. As the result, when the optimum Fe atomic percentage was 1.0 at%, the enhanced switching speeds (3.7 s for the bleaching speed and 2.0 s for the coloration speed) and enhanced coloration efficiency value (47.3 cm 2 /C) compared to the other films were implemented. This can be attributed to the improved electrical conductivity and Li + diffusion coefficient that led to efficient generation of the EC reaction activity and narrowing the optical bandgap at the coloration state to increase transmittance modulation. Therefore, this unique film can be a promising EC material to improve the performance for the EC devices.
