VO2/Si–Al gel nanocomposite thermochromic smart foils : largely enhanced luminous transmittance and solar modulation

VO2 nanoparticles with a dimension of approximately 20nm were obtained by simple mechanical bead-milling method, which were well dispersed in transparent silica-alumina (Si-Al) gel matrix to form nanocomposites. The VO2/Si-Al gel thermochromic nanocomposite foils were fabricated with various VO2 sol...
