Abstract

The oxides of vanadium, VO2 and V2O3, are attractive materials for optical switching applications due to their large excursions in both electrical and IR optical properties. These materials can be prepared in thin film form by a number of deposition techniques, making them compatible with optical and electrical device applications. The performance of these films is a sensitive function of microstructure and processing conditions. The effects of these variables are discussed.
