Abstract
The reduction process of vanadium oxide was monitored by measuring its in-situ electrical resistance. V2O5 films deposited on c-Al2O3 were annealed in a hydrogen environment and exhibited a sharp decrease in resistance at ∼350 °C, followed by a slight increase at ∼460 °C. Subsequent analyses confirmed that the noticeable resistance changes during the annealing process could be attributed to the reduced vanadium oxidation states. These results indicate that the variations in the resistance of the vanadium oxide films are directly related to the changes in their oxidation states. Therefore, in-situ electrical measurements can provide insights into the changes in the chemical state of vanadium oxide.
