Article Synopsis
- The Metal to Insulator Transition (MIT) in vanadium dioxide (VO) is significant for applications like smart windows and sensors, as it changes from an insulating state to a conducting state around 68 °C.
- Researchers are investigating how to adjust this transition temperature in VO thin films by using strain and defect engineering, resulting in a range from 65 °C to 82 °C through controlled growth conditions.
- The study includes various analytical techniques and density functional theory calculations to establish a connection between structural properties, strain, and electrical performance in VO thin films.
