Vanadium oxide thin films were deposited on ordinary glass substrates by direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering from a vanadium metal target and subsequent reduction annealing. The deposition and annealing parameters were given in detail. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The phase transition of the film was observed by measuring its resistance-temperature (R-T) characteristic curve. The results indicated that the film fabricated had a semiconductor-metal phase transition temperature of about 52°C, which is 16°C lower than the common phase transition temperature of vanadium dioxide film.

Direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering method was used to deposit vanadium oxide thin films on ordinary glass substrates from a vanadium metal target and a five factors four levels orthogonal experimental method was used to find the best combination of sputtering pressure, sputtering power, oxygen/argon flow ratio, substrate temperature and deposition time for fabricating high temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) vanadium oxide film. The results indicate that a good combination of these parameters should be 1Pa, 160W, 1.5/25, 280°C and 60 minutes. And the film fabricated using this parameters combination is mainly composed of V2O5and has a resistance range of 80.3kΩ to 40kΩ while its temperature changed from 20°C to 80°C.

VO2 is a unique material that undergoes a reversible phase transformation around 68[Formula: see text]C. Currently, applications of VO2 on smart windows are limited by its high transition temperature. In order to reduce the temperature, VO2 thin film was fabricated on quartz glass substrate by high power impulse magnetron sputtering with a modulated pulsed power. The phase transition temperature has been reduced to as low as 32[Formula: see text]C. In addition, the VO2 film possesses a typical metal–insulator transition. X-ray diffraction and selected area electron diffraction patterns reveal that an obvious lattice distortion has been formed in the as-deposited polycrystalline VO2 thin film. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy proves that oxygen vacancies have been formed in the as-deposited thin film, which will induce a lattice distortion in the VO2 thin film.

W-doped Vanadium oxide thin films were prepared on the substrates of SiO2 glass, float glass and Si (100) by reactive magnetron sputtering after annealing in vacuum. The structure, morphology and phase transition were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and differential thermal analysis (DTA), respectively. The results show that, the major phase of W-doped films on SiO2 glass is VO2.Dopant reduce the phase transition temperature of VO2 thin films to 21.9°C. The root-mean-square roughness of the film increase for the longer deposition time.
