Abstract

The structure of amorphous tungsten trioxide films was investigated with IR and Raman spectroscopic analyses and an XRD method. The films were prepared by ion exchange from sodium tungstate as a starting material. Films consisted of microclusters of 10–30 Å diameter, in which the networks are formed with WO6 octahedra sharing their corners and edges. The networks in the as-prepared samples consisted of WO6 units with low symmetry, in which termination by W=O and W—OH2 groups was common. As the post-annealed temperature became higher, the symmetry of WO6 was improved and the edge-sharing octahedra disappeared.
