Abstract

We show evidence of the manifestation of enormous metal–insulator switching ranging up to almost six orders of magnitude in individual nanowires of β′-CuxV2O5. The magnitude and temperature of the phase transition is in strong contrast to data reported over several decades for other Wadsley-type mixed valence tunnel bronze structures.
