New forms of vanadium oxide Nanoporous were fabricated using a simple chemical synthesis method. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) Nanoporous were synthesized by sodium metavanadate as precursor and ethylene glycol as surfactant. The samples were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), Four...

Low-temperature solution-processable vanadium oxide (V₂Ox) thin films have been employed as hole extraction layers (HELs) in polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells. V₂Ox films were fabricated in air by spin-coating vanadium(V) oxytriisopropoxide (s-V₂Ox) at room temperature without the need for further thermal annealing. The deposited vanadium(V) oxytriisopropoxide film undergoes hydrolysis in...

Amongst the materials being investigated for supercapacitor electrodes, carbon based materials are most investigated. However, pure carbon materials suffer from inherent physical processes which limit the maximum specific energy and power that can be achieved in an energy storage device. Therefore, use of carbon-based composites with suitable nano-materials is attaining prominence. The synergis...

Although the rechargeable lithium-sulfur battery is an advanced energy storage system, its practical implementation has been impeded by many issues, in particular the shuttle effect causing rapid capacity fade and low Coulombic efficiency. Herein, we report a conductive porous vanadium nitride nanoribbon/graphene composite accommodating the catholyte as the cathode of a lithium-sulfur battery. ...

Exposure to excessive vanadium occurs in some occupations and with consumption of some dietary regimens for weight reduction and body building. Because vanadium is vasoactive, individuals exposed to excessive vanadium may develop adverse vascular effects. We have previously shown that vanadyl sulfate causes acute pulmonary vasoconstriction, which could be attributed in part to inhibition of nit...

Vanadium–oxygen materials are of interest for various applications and fields solid-state physics owing to the unequaled plethora different phases. The wealth phases complexity its phase diagram infer a strong sensitivity on growth parameters each phase. Thus, reproducible vanadium-oxide thin-films defined by nonequilibrium techniques is challenging. Here, it shown that ion-beam sputter-deposit...

Bilayered vanadium oxides are attractive cathode materials for rechargeable batteries. The expanded interlayer space and versatile chemistries of these yield high specific capacities. However, capacity retention rate performance limited due to structural instability low electronic conductivity materials. Assembling the with one- two-dimensional carbon nanoparticles may produce highly efficient ...

Electrochromic switching devices have elicited considerable attention because these thin films are among the most promising materials for energy-saving applications. The vanadium oxide system is simple and inexpensive because only a single-layer film of this material is sufficient for coloration. Vanadium dioxide thin films are fabricated by electrochemical deposition and cyclic voltammetry. Ch...
