Abstract

A two-step method was proposed to synthesize V₂O₅ films on planar substrates, i.e., depositing a V₂O₃ thin film at ~160°C (by heating a pure sheet of vanadium in a rough vacuum) and then heat-treating it in air at ~600°C. The films, made up of nano crystal particles, had good photoluminescence (PL) properties, and the peak was in the position of about 700 nm. Further, photosensitivity characteristics of these V₂O₅ thin films were investigated at room temperature. The results show that this film is sensitive to ultraviolet rays, which indicates good potential application for an ultraviolet photo detector (UVPD).
