Recent Progress in Fabrication and Application of VO_2

Vanadium dioxide(VO_2)is one of the metal-semiconductor phase transition materials with excellent properties.Its phase transition temperature is near room temperature.Therefore,vanadium dioxide has good application prospect in modern industry.In this paper,the preparation methods of VO_2 powder and thin films are described, and the recent research development of VO_2 is reviewed in a systematic way.Finally,further key study areas and applications of VO_2 are presented.
