Lithium 5 wt% doped V{sub 2}O{sub 5} thin film was deposited onto ITO substrate by spray pyrolysis technique. The substrate temperature was kept at 450 °C. 200 MeV Ag{sup 15+} ion beams at a fluence of 5×10{sup 12} ions/cm{sup 2} was irradiated on 5 wt% ‘Li’ doped V{sub 2}O{sub 5} film of thickness 1367 nm. The XRD pattern confirms that the pristine film is non stoichiometry with orthorhombic structure and upon irradiation the crystallinity decreased and an obvious textured growth along (020) plane is induced. Raman peak observed at 917 cm{sup −1} is due to oxygen deficiency. Upon irradiation, the optical transparency and band gap of the film decreased. Electrical transport property study shows that the resistivity increased by one order for the irradiated film.
