Textured VO2(011) microcrystals are grown in the monoclinic, M1 phase which undergo a reversible first order semiconductor to metal transition (SMT) accompanied by a structural phase transition to rutile tetragonal, R phase. Around the…
The insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in vanadium dioxide (VO2) can enable a variety of optics applications, including switching and modulation, optical limiting, and tuning of optical resonators. Despite the widespread interest in…
We present {\it ab initio} LDA+DMFT results for the many-particle density of states of $VO_{2}$ on the metallic side of the strongly first-order ($T$-driven) insulator-metal transition. In strong contrast to LDA predictions, there is {\it…
We provide insights into the atomistic details of the ultrafast spatially-resolved breakdown of the insulating M1 phase in bulk VO2 employing an ab initio technique based on time-dependent density-functional theory and dynamical mean-field…
The abrupt metal insulator transition in $VO_2$ is attracting considerable interest from both fundamental and applicative angles. We report on DC I-V characteristics measured on $VO_2$ single crystals in the two-probe configuration at…
We consider a minimal model to investigate the metal-insulator transition in VO$_2$. We adopt a Hubbard model with two orbital per unit cell, which captures the competition between Mott and singlet-dimer localization. We solve the model…
We demonstrate an innovative multifunctional artificial material that combines exotic metamaterial properties and the environmentally responsive nature of phase change media. The tunable metamaterial is designed with the aid of two…
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…
As artificial intelligence continues to grow, so does the need for more efficient ways to process data. Besides moving from electronic to photonic circuits, a promising approach is to integrate phase-change materials. Vanadium dioxide…
Vanadium dioxide undergoes a first order metal-insulator transition at 340 K. In this work, we develop and carry out state of the art linear scaling DFT calculations refined with non-local dynamical mean-field theory. We identify a complex…
Among the complex many-body systems, the metal-insulator transition stands out as a cornerstone and a particularly fertile ground for scientific inquiry. The established models including Mott insulator, Anderson localization and Peierls…
We investigated optical absorption coefficient spectra of an epitaxial VO2 film in wide photon energy (0.5 - 5.0 eV) and temperature (100 - 380 K) regions. In its insulating phase, we observed two d-d transition peaks around 1.3 eV and 2.7…
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…
We use optical-pump terahertz-probe spectroscopy to investigate the near-threshold behavior of the photoinduced insulator-to-metal (IM) transition in vanadium dioxide thin films. Upon approaching Tc a reduction in the fluence required to…
We present an experimental demonstration of passive, dynamic thermal regulation in a solid-state system with temperature-dependent thermal emissivity switching. We achieve this effect using a multilayered device, comprised of a vanadium…
Nonequilibrium systems driven by external energy sources host unexplored physics; yet phase transitions beyond thermal equilibrium remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that electric current induces structural phase transitions in…
Despite widespread interest in the phase-change applications of vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$), the fabrication of high-quality VO$_2$ thin films with elevated transition temperatures (TIMT) and high Insulator-Metal-Transition resistance…
From thermodynamic analysis we demonstrate that during metal-insulator transitions in pure matters, a nonequilibrium homogeneous state may be unstable against charge density modulations with certain wavelengths, and thus evolves to the…
We have systematically studied a variety of vanadium dioxide (VO2) crystalline forms, including bulk single crystals and oriented thin films, using infrared (IR) near-field spectroscopic imaging techniques. By measuring the IR spectroscopic…
We report structural, magnetization, electrical resistivity and nuclear- and electron spin resonance data of the complex transition metal oxide In_2VO_5 in which structurally well-defined V-O chains are realized. An itinerant character of…
