Laser Assisted Control of the Metal-Insulator Transition in Hydrogenated Vanadium Dioxide Nanobeams

Description

Vanadium dioxide (VO¬2) is an incredibly promising material with many unique characteristics for electronic and optical applications. One of the defining traits exhibited by VO¬2 is the reversible metal-insulator transition (MIT). When heated up to 68°C, VO2 switches from insulating to metallic phase by showing 3 orders of magnitude increase in electrical conductance, accompanied with a crystal structural change from monoclinic to rutile in a time scale of femtoseconds.
