9783659924958: Phase transitions for better computers: Understanding vanadium oxide

Synopsis

The fascinating domain of phase transitions has been around for over half a century. It has found interest in applications spanning multiple areas, one such being computation systems. This book features a material of great intrigue, namely vanadium oxide. This system undergoes two phase transitions - one electronic and another structural, which many groups of researchers have attempted to understand but the jury is still out on the exact physics of the transitions. This book shines light on some of the important problems surrounding this material.
