摘要
Smart windows have attracted increasing attentions in recent decades because of their ability to automatically regulate indoor solar irradiation, reduce the energy consumption of air-conditioning, and maintain comfortable thermal environment for indoors. As a typical thermochromic material, vanadium dioxide (VO 2) exhibits reversible metal-insulator transition accompanied with dramatic optical transmittance changes near the room temperature, which makes VO 2 -based smart windows promising for practical uses in ambient conditions. This review summarizes recent advancements of techniques utilized for tailoring the properties of VO 2 to meet the specific requirements for smart windows. The phase transition temperature (T c ) should be reduced approaching the room temperature, whereas luminous transmittance (T lum ) and solar energy modulation efficiency (ΔT sol ) must be high enough to capture adequate daylight and perform with an energy-saving trend. The doping strategy and integrating with functional coatings can regulate the properties of VO 2 films. Besides the passive response to ambient temperature, electrothermal techniques and integration with specific materials, which generate heat, can enable VO 2 to work with improved optical properties regardless of its higher T c than the room temperature. Future maps for the development of VO 2 films are provided in the last part of the review. • The methods used to improve thermochromic performance of vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ) films for smart window applications are discussed in detail. • The doping strategy to modify the performance of VO 2 is carefully presented. • The electrothermal technique and integrated structures with different functional materials are explored. • The challenges and opportunities of VO 2 -based smart windows are summarized.
