Abstract : Vanadium pentoxide is the widely using transition metal oxide which has applications in areas of electrochromic devices, Li ions batteries, super capacitors, photovoltaic and optical devices. Doped vanadium pentoxide shows better stability and higher transmittance than pure vanadium pentoxide. Vanadium pentoxide nanostructures show better potential in cyclic voltammetry. Here we prepared Titanium doped vanadium pentoxide using Titanium tetra isopropoxide and vanadium (V) triisopropoxide oxide. The prepared solution was mixed with Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and the nanostructures were formed by electrospinning method. The formed nanostructures were annealed at different temperatures 350 °C, 450 °C and 550 °C. The annealed films were characterized by SEM and XRD methods. The cyclic voltammetry analysis was done to analyze its use in Lithium-ion batteries. The thin film annealed at 450 °C shows the best performance.
