摘要 Understanding of single-layer and bilayer thin films of WO3 and Ta2O5 for electrochromic applications remains elusive. In this study, single layers of WO3 and Ta2O5 and bilayer thin films of WO3/Ta2O5 and Ta2O5/WO3 were prepared by the sol–gel method followed by spin coating. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the semicrystalline nature of WO3 and the absence of significant crystalline planes in Ta2O5. Raman spectroscopy confirmed the characteristic vibrational modes of WO3 and Ta2O5 in both single-layer and bilayer thin films. Enhancement in cyclic voltammetry (CV) was observed in Ta2O5/WO3 compared to other thin films. Additionally, Ta2O5/WO3 exhibited a greater change in transmittance (ΔT) relative to other configurations. The impact of proton irradiation on the thin films was further investigated, revealing modifications in their structural and phonon vibrational properties. Notably, the CV performance of the irradiated thin films was drastically reduced. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) provided insights into the modulation of hybridization of O with W/Ta and the charge states of W and Ta in the thin films. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of single-layer and bilayer electrochromic thin films and their response to proton irradiation, paving the way for the development of space-applicable electrochromic bilayer thin films with improved performance and stability.
