Infrared radiative switching with thermally and electrically tunable transition metal oxides-based plasmonic grating (open access)

Infrared radiative switching with thermally and electrically tunable transition metal oxides-based plasmonic grating

Article says that plasmonic and phase transition has been blended to gain the infrared radiative switching which is tunable with temperature or voltage supply. This is applied via vanadium dioxide, tungsten trioxide, and molybdenum trioxide as transition metal oxides (TMO), the authors state that the work expands the usage of transition metal oxides in infrared region with larger contrast.
