Freestanding thin films of PVDF doped with Indium (In) and Antimony (Sb) were synthesized by sol-gel method. The films were characterized by SEM, EDS, XRD, and FTIR spectroscopy. As prepared films were in mixed phase with γ phase predominant. SEM depicts the uniformity of the films. The different phases were probed using XRD and FTIR studies. Interconversion of phases due to metal doping has been reported.
