摘要
The present work is focused on the fabrication of VO2(B) thin films by magnetron sputtering followed by proton irradiation using 5 MeV tandem accelerator. For the study of phase transitions, the proton ion beam applied was to the VO2(B) thin films at the rate of 1 x 10(15) ions/cm(2), 2 x 10(15) ions/cm(2), 7.5 x 10(15) ions/cm(2), 5 x 10(16) ions/cm(2) respectively. The VO2(B) thin-film shows prominent phase variation from VO2(B) to VO2(A) along with the amorphization phenomenon with the increasing doses of proton ions. The diffused reflectance spectroscopy shows increasing trends in reflectance from 20 to 39%. Energy bandgap was determined using a Tauc plot showing efficient decreasing trends w.r.t ion beam doses. Raman spectroscopy shows vibrations in the range from 144 to 883 cm(-1) with different bands, confirming the phase transition towards VO2(A) by proton ion beam irradiation. The results are useful and promising for the smart use of various phases of VO2(B) thin film.
