Abstract
The possibility of preparing neodymium-vanadium oxide bronze thin film s by magnetron sputtering of either a mixture of NdCl3 and V2O5 or a m ixture of Nd2O5 and vanadium oxides in an argon atmosphere is examined . The chemical composition and X-ray structural analysis of the prepar ed samples are presented. It is found that the films crystallize into the monoclinic crystallographic system and their composition is in lin e with the formula Nd(x)3+V2-3x(5+)V3x(4+)O5(2-). (C) 1994 Academic Pr ess, Inc.
