Nanochannels: A 1D Vanadium Dioxide Nanochannel Constructed via Electric-Field-Induced Ion Transport and its Superior Metal–Insulator Transition (Adv. Mater. 39/2017)

Nanoscale manipulation of materials' properties offers the clear possibility of developing novel electronic devices. In article number 1702162, Gang Liu, Xiao-Hong Xu, Run-Wei Li, and co-workers present the construction of 1D VO₂ nanochannels via electric-field-induced ion transport, showing a superior metal–insulator transition with fast speed, low power, and excellent reproducibility. The VO₂ nanostructure acts as promising candidate for the selector element in high-density crossbar memory arrays.
