We report the growth of ultrathin VO$_{2}$ films on rutile TiO$_{2}$ (001) substrates via reactive molecular-beam epitaxy. The films were formed by the cyclical deposition of amorphous vanadium and its subsequent oxidation and…

Electrical switching and rectifying properties of the metal-VO2-Si structures, on both p-type and n-type silicon, with vanadium dioxide films obtained by an acetylacetonate sol-gel method, are studied. The switching effect is shown to be…

Nine of the known vanadium oxides, VO$_{2-1/n}$ (n - a positive or negative integer) with n=2 - 6, 8, 9, $\infty$ and -6, undergo metal-insulator transitions accompanied by structural transitions, at various temperatures T$_{MIT}$…
