The strategy of a reliable transition temperature control of vanadium dioxide (VO2) is reported. Rectangular VO2 nanobeams were synthesized by a thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) system. The metal-insulator transition (MIT) temperature increases to above 380 K when the TiO2 ratio of the source is 5 at.%, although the Ti source is not physically doped into VO2 nanobeams. The XPS spectra of the V 2p orbital reveal the excessive oxidation of V after the TCVD processes with a higher TiO2 ratio, indicating that the TiO2 precursor is important in the O-doping of the surface VO bonds when forming volatile Ti-O gas species. Thus, TiO2 reactants can be used as a VO2 surface chemical modifier to manipulate the MIT transition temperature and maintain a homogenous VO2 phase, which is useful for a Mott device application with a record on/off switching ratio > 104 and Mott transition temperature > 380 K.

通过高性能二氧化钒纳米束通道中过量的催化氧掺杂来显着控制金属-绝缘体的转变温度
报道了可靠地控制二氧化钒(VO 2)的转变温度的策略。通过热化学气相沉积(TCVD)系统合成矩形VO 2纳米束。当源的TiO 2比例为5 at。%时,金属-绝缘体转变(MIT)温度增加到380 K以上,尽管Ti源并未物理掺杂到VO 2纳米束中。V 2p轨道的XPS光谱显示,在具有较高TiO 2比的TCVD工艺之后,V的过度氧化,表明TiO 2前体在形成挥发性Ti-O时在表面V O键的O掺杂中很重要。气体种类。因此,TiO 2反应物可用作VO 2表面化学改性剂,以控制MIT转变温度并保持均匀的VO 2相,这对于开/关切换比> 10 4且Mott转变温度> 380的记录的Mott装置应用非常有用K.
