    Zn-doped NiO thin films were prepared by sol-gel spin-coating method onto transparent conducting substrates using nickel acetate tetrahydrate and zinc acetate dehydrate as starting precursors. Effects of zinc doping content on the structural, optical and electrochromic properties of NiO films were investigated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field emission-scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscopy, UV-VIS spectrophotometer and cyclic voltammetry. The results reveal that Zn doping has significant influence on crystallinity deterioration, surface topography alternation and electrochromic performance of the films. The expansion of active surface area due to reduced crystallinity of the films resulting to the increase of charge transfer in the electrochemical reaction. It is indicated that electrochromic performance of sol-gel derived NiO films can be ameliorated by the incorporation of Zn additive at specific content.

    Tungsten oxide (WO<inf>3</inf>) electrochromic thin films were deposited onto F-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates using DC sputtering of tungsten target in presence of oxygen and argon gas. Asdeposited films were prepared with different sputtering power at 50 W, 100W and 200W. The effect of power on structural, surface morphology optical and electrochromic properties of the WO<inf>3</inf> thin films were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, UV-VIS spectrophotometer and Cyclic voltammetry, respectively. The XRD results show that the crystalline of WO<inf>3</inf> can be identified an orientation growth along (222) plane. The average grain size evaluated from SEM image is approximately 200 nm. The films deposited at power of 200 W exhibited better electrochromic properties with greatest optical modulation (ΔT) value of ΔT = 31.2% at λ= 550 nm. The cyclic voltammograms (CV) of WO<inf>3</inf> thin films evidently exhibited that the WO<inf>3</inf> films prepared at power of 200 W displayed the superior electrochromic performance, compared to the others. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    The influence of different transition metals doping (Ti and Zn) on structural properties and electrochromic adjustment and performance of sol-gel derived WO<inf>3</inf> thin films was conducted and investigated. Ti-doped WO<inf>3</inf> and Zn-doped WO<inf>3</inf> thin films were deposited onto F-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates using spin coating technique. Tungsten powder, Titanium butoxide and zinc acetate dehydrate were used as starting precursors. The as-deposited films were annealed at 500 °C for 2 h. The effect of Ti and Zn doping on structural, surface morphologies, optical properties of the films were examined using X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope and UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The XRD analyses suggest that the crystalline of WO<inf>3</inf> can be identified as a monoclinic WO <inf>3</inf> structure. XRD results additionally indicate the existence of ZnWO<inf>4</inf> structure in the Zn-doped films, which is clearly observed by SEM. The optical measurement of all films indicate good transparency in the visible region and near infrared region with more than 60% in transmittance. In addition, It was found that the electrochromic performance of WO<inf>3</inf> can be enhanced by small doping concentration of titanium due to structural modification of the films caused by close ionic radius of Ti to W rather than that of Zn. © 2013 The Authors.
