Designing Defect Structure and Interfacial Strain in an Epitaxial VN Bilayer Film by Tailoring N Concentration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 4, 17 February 2026.
The N concentration in an epitaxial VN bilayer is tailored from overstoichiometric V0.49N0.51 to understoichiometric V0.56N0.44. Based on ab initio, diffraction, and microscopy data, the overstoichiometric V0.49N0.51 layer contains V vacancies, N Frenkel pairs, and a high density of dislocations.

Influence of Metal Oxide Interface Layers on the Thermochromic Properties of VO2 Thin Films Deposited by Magnetron Sputtering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 4, 17 February 2026.
This study investigates the thermochromic properties of VO2 deposited on aluminum doped zinc oxide precoated fused silica with Al2O3, TiO2, and WO3 as interface layers. The results indicate that the metal‐to‐insulator transition is highly influenced by the grains formed at the interface.
