“…[5,6,[29][30][31][32]. Recently, an increasing attention has been paid to tetragonal VO 2 (A) (space group P42/ncm) [26,33,34], because it shows a metal-semiconductor transition with the phase transition temperature (T c ) at 162°C, accompanied by a crystallographic transition between a low temperature phase (LTP, P4/ncc, 130°C below 162°C) and a high temperature phase (HTP, I4/m, 87°C above 162°C). In the past decades, the synthesis, characterization and properties of VO 2 (B), VO 2 (M) and VO 2 (A) have been extensively studied, however, the oxidation resistance properties of VO 2 (B), VO 2 (A) and VO 2 (M) in air atmosphere have rarely been reported.…”
