Porous thin films composed of complex Fe/V oxides (crystalline Fe2V4O13 and amorphous Fe2V4O12.29) are prepared by electrostatic spray deposition technique. The crystalline Fe2V4O13 thin film shows a high initial capacity of 409mAhg−1. The cyclic voltammetry analysis of a Fe2V4O13/Li cell reveals that the crystalline Fe2V4O13 undergoes an irreversible phase transition when the lower cut-off voltage is below 2.5V. Compared with the crystalline Fe2V4O13, the amorphous Fe2V4O12.29 thin film delivers a lower initial capacity of 349.9mAhg−1 but exhibits better cycling performance in the voltage range of 1.0–4.0V. After 50 cycles, its capacity can still reach around 200mAhg−1. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveals that the Fe2V4O12.29 thin film contains ions of mixed valence states V5+/V4+ and Fe3+/Fe2+, resulting in better rate capability for Fe2V4O12.29 than for Fe2V4O13. These results indicate that the amorphous Fe/V-oxide film is a promising electrode material for high energy applications.
