We have systematically investigated the characterization of V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films as a counter electrode for lithium based complementary electrochromic devices. The V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films were prepared by thermal vacuum evaporation with varing the substrate temperature and film thickness. In electrochromic devices for smart windows, the WO$_{3}$ thin films with 400-800 nm thickness require to be capable of reversibly injection 10-15 mC/cm$^{2}$ of lithium, which is readily accomplished charge-balanced switching in a V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films with 100-150nm thick. The V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films produces considerably small changes in optical modulation properties in the visible and near infrared region(500-1100 nm) compared to the amorphous WO$_{3}$ thin films on 10-15 mC/cm$^{2}$ of lithium injection and the V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films can therefore act as a counter electrode to WO$_{3}$ in a lithium based complementary clectrochromic devices. After 10$^{5}$ coloration/bleaching switching time, the degradation does not occurs and the devices exhibit a stable optical modulation in V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films. It has shown that the injected lithium ion amounts in crystalline V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ thin films with the same thickness is large by 3-5 mC/cm$^{2}$ of lithium compared to the amorphous thin films in the same driving conditions. Therefore, to optimize the device performance, it is necessary to choose an appropriate film thickness and crystallinity of V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ for amorphous WO$_{3}$ film thickness as a working electrode.

We have investigated the characterization of $V_2O_{5}$ thin films as a counter electrode for lithium based complementary electrochromic devices. The amorphous $V_2O_{5}$ thin films produces comparatively small changes in transmittance in the visible and near infrared compared to the crystalline $V_2O_{5}$ thin films, while the degradation occurs in a-$V_2O_{5}$ thin films with increasing the cycle life time. As the thickness of $V_2O_{5}$ thin films increases from 100 to 600 nm, the magnitude of transmittance modulation decreases. The crystalline $V_2O_{5}$ thin films with thickness around 1000 have electrochromic properties suitable for counter electrode application in lithium based electrochromic smart windows.

[ $TiO_2-V_2O_5$ ] sol was fabricated using sol-gel method and $TiO_2-V_2O_5$ thin films were fabricated using dip-coating method. $V_2O_5$ sol was added 0.01mole, 0.03mole, 0.05mole into $TiO_2$ sol. As a results of crystalline properties, $V_2O_5$ peaks were not found in spite of $V_2O_5$ additive. Thickness of thin films increased $0.1{\sim}0.25{\mu}m$ every a dipping. Capacitance of thin films increased with increasing heat treatment temperature and it increased largest at $700^{\circ}C$. Capacitance of thin films decreased with increasing $V_2O_5$ additive and it increased largest at 0.01mole. Because adsorption time and desorption time of thin films was about 2 minutes 40 seconds and about 3 minutes 40 seconds respectively, adsorption time was faster about 1 minutes than desorption time.

The $V_{1.8}W_{0.2}O_5$ thin films deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by RF sputtering method with different $Ar/O_2$ ratio. The $V_{1.8}W_{0.2}O_5$ thin films were measured electrical and structural properties, fairly good Temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR). It was found that electrical and structural properties, TCR properties of thin films were strongly dependent upon the $Ar/O_2$ ratio.

[ $TiO_2-V_2O_5$ ] sol was prepared using sol-gel method. Sol changed to gel with hydrolysis and polymerization. DTA properties of gel powder had endothermic reaction due to evaporation of propanol about $80^{\circ}C$, had exothermic reaction due to combustion of propanol about $230^{\circ}C$ and had exothermic reaction due to combustion of alkyl group about $350^{\circ}C$. Crystalline properties of gel powder retained amorphous phase at $50^{\circ}C$, retained anatase phase from $400^{\circ}C\;to\;600^{\circ}C$ and had all rutile phase over $700^{\circ}C$ at 0.01mole $V_2O_5$ additive. The capacitance of thin films increased with increasing heat treatment temperature and thin films had best properties at $700^{\circ}C$. The capacitance of thin films increased a lot with decreasing measurement frequency.

Recently IR detecting devices using MEMS have been actively studied. Microbolometer, one of these devices, detects the change of resistivity as the change of temperature of the device by absorbing IR, IR absorbing materials for microbolometer should have high TCR value and low noise characteristics which depends on resistivity. We fabricated multi-layer VOx thin films to improve the IR detectivity of uncooled IR devices and analyzed IR absorbing characteristics. We fabricated multi-layer VOx thin films by RF reactive sputtering method on SiNx substrate and changed characteristics using the different thickness of V and V$_2$O$\_$5/ thin films. Then we annealed them under 300$\^{C}$. The TCR (Temperature Coefficient of Resistance) measurement was carried out to estimate the IR detectivity of multi-layer VOx thin films. XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) analysis was carried out to estimate the IR detectivity of multi-layer VOx thin films. ZXRD (X-Ray Diffraction) analysis was used to find out phases and structures of V and V$_2$O$\_$5/ thin films. AES (Auger Electron Spectroscopy) analysis was used to find out composition of multi-layer VOx thin films before and after annealing. We obtained the optimum thickness range of V and V$_2$O$\_$5/ thin films from the result of AES analysis. We changed the thickness of V$_2$O$\_$5/ about 20 to 150 $\AA$ and thickness of V about 10 to 20 $\AA$. As the result of this, TCR value of multi-layer VOx thin films was about -2%/k and the resistivity was ∼1Ωcm.
