| Sumario: | Solution-processing is a low-cost solution method to preparea variety of organic or inorganic thin films. For metal oxide compounds, a solution-processing solution of an organometallic compound is frequently used as a precursor to be spin coated, followed by a thermal annealing to form metal oxide. In this work, vanadium oxide powders are obtained from a simple acid-base reaction, and then they are dispersed in isopropyl alcohol to form a solution for spin-coating. Different amount of cobalt salt are also added together with VOx into isopropyl alcohol to form VOx:Co2+ solutions. After thermal annealing at 200 °C, continuous transparent thin films are obtained. Optical, structural, morphological and chemical binding energies of those films are analyzed. It is found that amorphous VO2:Co2+ compound is formed in those films with V:Co atomic ratios between 6.6:1 and 1.6:1. Optical absorption onsets of those films are around 2.3 eV. An interesting interconnected porous morphology is observed when the atomic ratio of V:Co is around 4.9:1. It is concluded that porous amorphous cobalt doped vanadium oxide thin films can be obtained from a spin-coating process at low annealing temperature from a simple solution without any complex agent. |
