EOSAM: near-IR transparent conductive amorphous WO3-x thin layers by non-reactive RF-sputtering
Published:
With growing demand for transparent conductive materials, this work explores amorphous WO3-x thin films as a promising alternative. Smooth, compact films were fabricated by RF-sputtering and enhanced via post-annealing, leading to improved near-IR transparency and a competitive figure of merit, highlighting their potential for next-generation optoelectronic applications.
SPIE photonics Europe: amorphous WO3-x as transparent conductive oxide in the near-IR
Published:
RF-sputtered films exhibit smooth morphology and n-type conductivity with extended near-IR transparency. Annealing tunes optoelectronic properties, with low-temperature treatment optimizing performance and demonstrating strong potential compared to conventional transparent conductive films in the near-IR.
108° Congresso Nazionale: tailorable WO3-x for near-IR photonics and transparent-conductive films
Published:
This work investigates WO3−x thin films prepared by RF-sputtering and annealing, demonstrating tunable structural, optical, dielectric, and electrical properties. The results highlight their potential as IR transparent conductors and their integration into 1D photonic bandgap structures, enabling surface electric field enhancement.
CMD30-FISMAT: effect of annealing in air, N2 and vacuum on the structure of RF-sputtered WO3-x thin films
Published:
Controlled annealing environments modulate oxygen vacancy populations and local coordination in WO3-x thin films, driving changes in crystallization behavior and electronic structure. Synchrotron X-ray absorption reveals how defect chemistry governs microstructure and lifts W 5d orbital degeneracy.
ESRF user meeting: local structure of amorphous and crystalline WO3-x thin films studied by XANES and EXAFS
Published:
The presence of intrinsic oxygen defects affects the local ordering and electronic structure in WO3-x. W 5d states split into two sub-bands with a dominant lower-energy component, tunable via annealing atmosphere. Changes in W–O coordination occur prior to long-range crystallization, indicating that electronic properties are governed by short-range order.
FISMAT: XAS and RIXS investigation of oxygen vacancy engineering in WO3-x films: from amorphous to crystalline phases
Published:
Quantitative non-negative matrix factorization (NNMF) analysis of RIXS datasets resolves mixed-valence tungsten states (W⁴⁺, W⁵⁺, W⁶⁺) in WO3-x, enabling extraction of the previously obscured W⁵⁺ component. The results show that W⁴⁺-rich configurations dominate optical absorption and electrical conduction, with infrared response consistent with small-polaron hopping between mixed-valence sites in amorphous WO3-x.
