Abstract:

The details of several stages of the thermal metal-semiconductor phase transition (MSPT) in vanadium dioxide films are experimentally studied. The idea of a joint and coherent coexistence of the two components of MSPT - the electronic and structural components - is substantiated. The problem of the type of metal-semiconductor phase transition in vanadium dioxide is discussed.
