  1. 1. Thermochromic VO2-based materials for smart windows : Progress towards applications in buildings

    Author : Yuxia Ji; Granqvist Claes G.; Niklasson Gunnar A.; Lars Österlund; Dimitra Vernardou; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Thermochromic; Vanadium dioxide; Smart windows; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Vanadium dioxide is a well-known thermochromic material, whose optical properties can be varied reversibly in response to fluctuation of temperature. It is attractive in various fields due to its unique properties as well as its prospective applications. READ MORE

  2. 2. VO2-based Thermochromic and Nanothermochromic Materials for Energy-Efficient Windows : Computational and Experimental Studies

    Author : Shuyi Li; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Gunnar Niklasson; Ivan Parkin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VO2; thermochromism; nanothermochromics; energy efficient windows; optical modeling; effective medium theory; thin film characterization; doping;

    Abstract : VO2-based films are thermochromic and exhibit high or low infrared transmittance when the temperature is below or above a critical temperature. The thermochromic switching is passive and reversible, and therefore VO2 based films are promising for energy-efficient window appli­cations. READ MORE

  3. 3. Epitaxial growth, structure, and thermoelectric properties of CaMn- and V-based oxides

    Author : Erik Ekström; Per Eklund; Biplab Paul; Fredrik Eriksson; Nini Pryds; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin film; PVD; Oxides; Epitaxy; XRD;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on physical vapor deposition, epitaxy, and structural characterization of CaMnO3 and VO2. Environmentally friendly and abundant materials are important for energy savings in applications, e.g., thermoelectrics for waste-heat recycling and thermochromic materials for passive indoor-temperature regulation.
