Abstract
Abstract Optical effects are measured during the phase transition of vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ) exposed to friction, thereby opening new possibilities for friction measurements and detection. Exposure to periodic cycles of kinetic friction yield measurable, repeatable and reversible changes in optical properties of the films. Changes in reflectance are detected with thermal flux intensities as low as 1 mW/cm 2 . Characteristic response and recovery times are studied and modelled, as well as the effect of operating temperature, friction speed, pressure, friction coefficient and the thermal properties of the substrate.
