Abstract
Abstract Vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ), a promising phase change material, exhibits insulator to metal transition at 68 °C, manifests a drastic change in multiple physical properties, such as electrical resistance, mechanical modulus, lattice parameters, etc. From technological perspective, the transition temperature can be reduced by precise strain engineering. Here a noncontact, all‐optical, and highly energy efficient platform is demonstrated to study macroscopic dynamics related to the localized structural rearrangements at room temperature. A thin layer (≈25 nm) of polycrystalline VO 2 deposited on a platinum coated silicon nitride microstring resonator shows a fast controlled mechanical resonance frequency response upon variations in optical power and wavelength. It is shown multiple stable frequencies of the resonator, designated as different equilibrium states, can be activated at different optical powers (≈200 µW) and wavelength, i.e., 450, 520, and 635 nm. The observed multiple resonance states of the microstring are explained because of the generation of stress due to the interplay between thermal expansion and the temperature‐induced phase change of VO 2 . It is believed this change in frequency states under the controlled external optical excitation can have potential applications in ultrafast optical switching, intelligent temperature sensors, and neuromorphic devices operated at room temperature.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
