Morphology and phase controlled synthesis of CsxWO3 powders by solvothermal method and their optical properties

Effects of processing parameters on the morphology and microstructure of CsxWO3 were investigated. Autoclave rotating during reaction is helpful for decreasing the particle size, and ethanol solvent is favorable for forming pure hexagonal CsxWO3 crystals. The reaction conditions have great effects on the optical absorption of CsxWO3 products.
