We have performed first order reversal curve measurements of the temperature-driven metal-insulator transition in VO$_2$ thin films, which enable quantitative analysis of the hysteresis behavior. An unexpected tail-like feature in the…
The interaction of atoms with higher-order Poincar\'e optical vortex modes of order $m\geq 0$ is explored for light close to resonance with atomic dipole transitions. It is well-known that atoms subject to optical vortex modes experience…
Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) has received significant interest in the context of nanophotonic metamaterials and memories owing to its reversible insulator-metal transition associated with significant changes in its optical and electronic…
Vanadium oxide thin films exhibit temperature-driven electronic transitions desirable for sensing and microelectronic applications, yet their performance is often limited by thermal hysteresis. This study demonstrates that electronic…
We study field-effect transistors realized from VO2 nanobeams with HfO2 as the gate dielectric. When heated up from low to high temperatures, VO2 undergoes an insulator-to-metal transition. We observe a change in conductance (~ 6 percent)…
