Li{sub {ital y}}V{sub 2}O{sub 5} films were produced by reactive dc magnetron sputtering followed by electrochemical posttreatment in LiClO{sub 4}. X-ray diffraction showed an orthorhombic structure. Spectrophotometric transmittance and reflectance measurements demonstrated that the luminous and solar absorptance increased moderately for {ital y} increasing from zero to unity. It is argued that Li{sub {ital y}}V{sub 2}O{sub 5} is useful as an ion storage material operating in conjunction with electrochromic films.
