ABSTRACT:
A vanadium oxide compound having the formula VO.sub.2 is disclosed for the purpose of selectively shielding an electromagnetic transmitter or receiver. Vanadium oxide exhibits a marked and rapid transition from dielectric and transparent to electromagnetic radiation to metallic and impervious to such radiation at a specific temperature, 68.degree. C. The compound is preferably mounted as a thin layer on a substrate which has been specifically selected for the desired application. The transmission of radiation is then temperature selected. The preferred method of deposition is an organic hydrolysis reaction.
