) which lead the materials for their applications in the field of Electrochromic and Opto Electronic Devices. The
combination of solid state materials science with thin film technology has significantly reduced the size of component and leads to
micro electronic, micro ionic, electrochromic devices and display systems. Thin film deposition consists of three major phases. In
the first phase, the material should be in the proper form to deposit. In the second stage, it was transported through the medium
and in the third stage it should deposit on the substrate to form a continuous film. The films can be prepared by various physical
vapour deposition techniques like thermal, electron beam, sputtering, so on and chemical vapour deposition techniques like sol-
gel, spin coating, spray pyrolisis so on. Depending on the deposition parameters one can deposit amorphous, polycrystalline and
nanocrystalline thin films for their effective utilisation in emerging technology. These films will be characterized for their composition,
structure, morphology, vibrational and optical studies by using x-ray photo electron spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, atomic force
microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and UV-VIS spectroscopy.
