Vanadium dioxide (VO2) as a phase-change material controls the transferred heat during phase transition process between metal and insulator states. At temperature above 68C, the rutile structure VO2 keeps the heat out and increases the IR…
We study the optical response of VO2 in the M1 insulating phase using methods based on density functional theory in its most recent developments. We start from a hybrid functional approach which may be a good starting point to carry out…
Vanadium dioxide is of broad interest as a spin-1/2 electron system that realizes a metal-insulator transition near room temperature, due to a combination of strongly correlated and itinerant electron physics. Here, resonant inelastic X-ray…
It is observed that low-lying transitions of an interstitial hydrogen adatom on a metallic lattice correspond classically to dipoles oscillating at frequencies where band electrons typically have a low electromagnetic absorption. Such…
Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) undergoes a metal-insulator transition (MIT) at 340 K with the structural change between tetragonal and monoclinic crystals as the temperature is lowered. The conductivity $\sigma$ drops at MIT by four orders of…
VO2 is a strongly correlated material, which undergoes a reversible metal insulator transition (MIT) coupled to a structural phase transition upon heating (T= 67{\deg} C). Since its discovery the nature of the insulating state has long been…
Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) exhibits hysteresis in resistance while undergoing a thermally driven insulator-metal transition (IMT). Understanding the nonequilibrium effects in resistance is of great interest, as VO$_2$ is a strong candidate…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dinitride (HfN2) has been studied for their optoelectronic, piezoelectric, and thermoelectric properties. Both monolayer and bilayer of HfN2 were studied using density functional theory (DFT) and…
We report the concept of a near-field memory device based on the radiative bistability effect in the system of two closely separated parallel plates of SiO$_2$ and VO$_2$ which exchange heat by thermal radiation in vacuum. We demonstrate…
The metal-insulator transition of VO$_2$, which in equilibrium is associated with a structural phase transition, has been intensively studied for decades. In particular, it is challenging to disentangle the role of Mott physics from…
Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) is a strongly-correlated material that exhibits insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) near room temperature, which makes it a promising candidate for applications in nanophotonics or optoelectronics. However,…
Scalable and controlled doping of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides is essential for tuning their electronic and optoelectronic properties. In this work, we demonstrate a robust approach for substitution of vanadium in…
Magneto-optical response, i.e. optical response in the presence of a magnetic field, is commonly used for characterization of materials and in optical communications. However, quantum mechanical description of electric and magnetic fields…
Twisted light beams, or optical vortices, have been used to drive the circular motion of microscopic particles in optical tweezers and have been shown to generate vortices in quantum gases. Recent studies have established that electric…
The metal insulator transition (MIT) in VO2 has been an important topic for recent years. It has been generally agreed that the mechanism of the MIT in bulk VO2 is considered to be a collaborative Mott-Peierls transition, however the effect…
Amorphous solids exhibit intrinsic, local structural transitions, that give rise to the well known quantum-mechanical two-level systems at low temperatures. We explain the microscopic origin of the electric dipole moment of these two-level…
