New publication in Nature Scientific Reports

A new publication on VO2 Peano reconfigurable inductors for RF frequencies was published in December 2019 in Scientific Reports . We report here fabricated inductors with record quality factors using VO2 phase transition to program multiple tuning states, operating in the range 4 GHz to 10 GHz.
