We have grown VO2 thin films by laser ablation for electronic device applications. In obtaining the thin films of the pure VO2 phase, oxygen partial pressure is a critical parameter because vanadium oxides have several phases with the…
Precise control of the chemical valence or oxidation state of vanadium in vanadium oxide thin films is highly desirable for not only fundamental research, but also technological applications that utilize the subtle change in the physical…
Thin films of Co-TiO2 are deposited on silicon and quartz substrates using Pulse Laser Deposition (PLD) process at various oxygen partial pressures ranging from 6.6 x 10-3 Pascals (Pa) to 53 Pa. Crystal structure, transport and magnetic…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) observed in vanadium dioxide (VO2) has been a topic of great research interest for past decades, with the underlying physics yet not fully understood due to the complex electron interactions and…
Vanadium dioxide with metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) that is triggered by heat, current or light is a promising material for modern active THz/mid-IR metasurfaces and all-optical big data processing systems. Multilayer VO2-based active…
We have succeeded in growing epitaxial films of rocksalt VOx on MgO(001) substrates. The oxygen content as a function of oxygen flux was determined using 18O2-RBS and the vanadium valence using XAS. The upper and lower stoichiometry limits…
Vanadium oxides are strongly correlated materials which display metal-insulator transitions as well as various structural and magnetic properties that depend heavily on oxygen stoichiometry. Therefore, it is crucial to precisely control…
