We investigate far-infrared properties of strain engineered vanadium dioxide nanosheets through epitaxial growth on a (100)R TiO2 substrate. The nanosheets exhibit large uniaxial strain leading to highly uniform and oriented cracks along the rutile c-axis. Dramatic anisotropy arises for both the metal-insulator transition temperature, which is different from the structural transition temperature along the cR axis, and the metallic state conductivity. Detailed analysis reveals a Mott-Hubbard like behavior along the rutile cR axis.
