Enhanced Luminous Transmission and Solar Modulation in Thermochromic VO2 Aerogel-like Films via Remote Plasma Deposition
Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a thermochromic material that undergoes a phase transition from a monoclinic semiconducting state to a rutile metallic state at 68 °C, a temperature close to room temperature...

✨ Results that speak for themselves:
🔹 Luminous Transmission >54%
🔹 Solar Modulation up to 18.8%

All in a scalable, solvent-free process.

Next-gen smart windows are HERE. 🚀

Our new paper in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces introduces a plasma-based method (RPAVD) to create ultra-porous, aerogel-like VO₂ films.

Why is this a big deal?

It SMASHES the usual trade-off between transparency & solar control! 💡

☕ In one Café con Ciencia session, we:

🖼️ Traveled to the Louvre and explored diamond structures from stolen jewelry
🌧️ Measured raindrop energy
✨ Learned why things shine

Science can take you anywhere!
