Abstract
The fine particles of tetragonal K xWO 3 and cubic Na xWO 3 were successfully synthesized by reducing WO 4 2- with BH 4 - in aqueous solutions, followed by the crystallization of amorphous precursors by calcination under N 2, NH 3 and H 2 (5 vol%)/N 2 atmospheres at 600°C for 1 h, respectively. The products showed excellent electrical conductivity, visible light transparency, and near-infrared light shielding characteristics, where the samples crystallized in H 2 (5 vol%)/N 2 mixed gas showed the highest electric conductivity being superior to commercial conductive oxide ITO. Meanwhile, the samples showed strong absorption of near-infrared light and instantaneous conversion of photo-energy to local heat. The effects of crystallization atmosphere on the near-infrared absorbtion and electroconductivity properties of K xWO 3 and Na xWO 3 are discussed in detail.
