Abstract

Vanadium dioxide (VO) is identified as an attractive phase change material which can be used for switchable or reconfigurable RF components. At present, VO is deposited by expensive and complex thin film micro-fabrication techniques. With the surge in low cost, additively manufactured or printed components, it will be beneficial to print phase change materials or switches as well. However, these kinds of functional inks are not available commercially. In this work, we present, for the first time VO based ink that changes its conductive properties based on temperature. Precisely, it displays insulating properties at room temperature (resistance of ~1.2KΩ in the off-state), but becomes conductive when heated around 70°C (resistance of
