We present the results on excimer laser modification and patterning of amorphous vanadium pentoxide films. Wet positive resist-type and Ar ion-beam negative resist-type etching techniques were employed to develop UV-modified films. V2O5 films were found to possess sufficient resistivity compared to standard electronic materials thus to be promising masks for sub-micron lithog-raphy
Electrical and optical properties of amorphous vanadium oxide thin films obtained by electrochemical anodic oxidation are studied. It is shown that under cathodic polarization the hydrogen insertion into vanadium oxide from an electrolyte occurs. Metal-insulator transition in amorphous HxVO2 is found to be preserved up to high concentration (x ~ 1.5) of hydrogen. Memory switching with the N-type negative differential resistance, associated with the H+ ionic transfer, is observed in "V/hydrated amorphous vanadium oxide/Au" sandwich structures.
