Surface acoustic wave investigations of the metal-to-insulator transition of V2O3 thin films on lithium niobate
Thin V2O3 films were deposited on a piezoelectric substrate by electron-beam
evaporation. Surface acoustic waves (SAW) were generated by
interdigital-transducers (IDTs). The attenuation and sound velocity was
investigated from 260K to 10K, providing an insight into the temperature
dependent electrical, dielectrical and elastic properties of V2O3 at the metal
to insulator transition.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figure
