Passive daytime radiative cooling represents one of the boldest answers to tackle the future
cooling needs of the built environment and to mitigate urban heat island effects. Recent …

Energy-efficient components that are capable of intelligently regulating room temperature
are much demanded to reduce the energy consumption in buildings. In recent years, phase …

Thin-film materials with'smart'properties that react to temperature variations, electric or
magnetic fields, and/or pressure variations have recently attracted a great deal of attention …

Smart windows are defined by their ability to regulate incoming solar radiation in order to
reduce the energy consumption of buildings by modulating the heat intake. Vanadium …

A stress relaxation effect on the transport properties of strained vanadium dioxide epitaxial
thin films grown on Ti O 2 (001) single crystal was investigated. When varying the film …

VO2 has been intensively studied as a model system for metal‐insulator transition (MIT),
ever since its phase switching behavior at relatively low temperature (Tc= 68° C) was …

We describe a relatively simple, reliable, and reproducible preparation technique, the
precursor oxidation process, for making VO 2 films with strong semiconductor-to-metal …

The interface effects on the metal-insulator transition (MIT) of strained VO 2 ultrathin films
grown epitaxially on Ti O 2 (001) single crystal substrate were investigated. Varying the …

We report on the crystal structure and morphology of vanadium dioxide (VO 2)
nanostructures synthesized by pulsed laser deposition on soda-lime glass substrates. The …

The effect of ambient atmosphere on metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) in strained vanadium
dioxide (VO 2) ultrathin films (7–8 nm) grown epitaxially on Ti O 2 (001) single crystal …
