Synthesis and thermochromic property studies on W doped VO2 films fabricated by sol-gel method

Abstract Tungsten-doped VO2 thin films have been synthesized by a modified sol–gel process and followed by a post annealing. Vanadium pentoxide and tungstic acid as raw materials with the addition of hydrogen peroxide, concentrated hydrochloric acid (catalyst) and oxalic acid used as reducing agent...
