Effects of epitaxial strain on metal–insulator transitions (MITs) of epitaxial VO2 films grown on MgF2 (001) substrates were examined. A partially tensile-strained film deposited at 420 °C showed an MIT temperature (TMI) of 318 K whereas that of a relaxed film deposited at 520 °C was about 331 K. Raman scattering measurements showed that the epitaxial strain affects the V–V vibration modes in the insulating phase. The TMI in the strained film is lower as a result of the shorter V–V distance and the reduced twisting angle of the V–V dimer caused by in-plane tensile strain.
