Vanadium dioxide films have been prepared with different thicknesses using radio-frequency magnetron sputtering technique followed by postdeposition annealing in oxygen ambient. Films with a thickness of 300nm show a switching efficiency of ∼74% and most importantly with a near-zero infrared transmission in the switched state. As the film thickness decreases, the inherent transmission in the switched state increases along with reduced switching efficiencies.
