Layered-structure nanoribbons with efficient electron transport and short lithium ion insertion lengths are promising candidates for Li battery applications. Here we studied at the single nanostructure level the chemical, structural, and electrical transformations of V2O5 nanoribbons. We found that transformation of V2O5 into the omega-Li3V2O5 phase depends not only on the width but also the th...

We report the synthesis and characterization of new V2O5/Al2O3-MgO catalysts and their application in oxidative dehydrogenation and epoxidation reactions. The materials were prepared by wet impregnation under excess acid conditions. Anchoring of the desired species on the support occurs via an exchange reaction between the vanadium complex and surface hydroxyl groups. The IR and UV-Vis spectra ...

in this research, fabrication of an in-situ composite via aluminothermic combustion synthesis in al–v2o5 system has been investigated. for this purpose, the mixed powders of al and v2o5 with molar ratio of 28 to 3 were ball milled and then compressed. differential thermal analysis was used to evaluate the temperatures of phase transitions. using the peak temperature of the reactions, the sample...

VOx thin films were deposited on Corning glass, fused silica and Ti foils by means of rf reactive sputtering from a metallic vanadium target. Argon-oxygen gas mixtures of different compositions controlled by the flow rates were used for sputtering. Influence of the oxygen partial pressure in the sputtering chamber on the structural and optical properties of thin films has been investigated. Str...

Electronic structures of the vanadium/vanadium-oxide films supported on α-Fe2O3(0001) were studied by using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The vanadium films were grown by evaporation of metallic vanadium at room temperature. The as-deposited V had a 3+ oxidation state and the α-Fe2O3(0001) surface was reduced at the initial coverage. After complete reduction of interface iron atoms, metalli...

The electrochromic property of nickel doped vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) deposited by a co-sputtering system is investigated. structural analysis the thin film was done an X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyzer. surface morphology studied field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). composition detected Auger analysis. properties device were measured cyclic voltammetry. For undoped V2O5 film, c...

V2O5/SiO2 nanoparticles was prepared via an one-pot sol gel method from vanadyl- acetylacetonate and tetraethylorthosilicate in refluxing MeOH, followed by calcination at 700 °C for 2 hours. The resultant nanoparticles was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), TGA and FTIR techniques. Rapid and efficient ar...

The rapid insertion and extraction of Li ions from a cathode material is imperative for the functioning of a Li-ion battery. In many cathode materials such as LiCoO2, lithiation proceeds through solid-solution formation, whereas in other materials such as LiFePO4 lithiation/delithiation is accompanied by a phase transition between Li-rich and Li-poor phases. We demonstrate using scanning transm...
