The search for high-quality transition metal dichalcogenides mono- and multi-layers grown on large areas is still a very active field of investigation nowadays. Here, we use molecular beam epitaxy to grow 15$\times$15 mm large WSe$_2$ on…
We report a detailed investigation of the first stages of the growth of self-organized Fe clusters on the reconstructed Au(111) surface by grazing incidence X-ray diffraction. Below one monolayer coverage, the Fe clusters are in "local…
We study how FeO w\"{u}stite films on Ru(0001) grow by oxygen-assisted molecular beam epitaxy at elevated temperatures (800-900 K). The nucleation and growth of FeO islands are observed in real time by low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM).…
We have investigated InGaAs layers grown by molecular-beam epitaxy on GaAs(001) by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence spectroscopy. InGaAs layers with In-concentrations of 16, 25 and 28 % and respective thicknesses…
We report on epitaxial growth in thin-film synthesis of a polar magnetic semiconductor AgCrSe2 on lattice-matched yttria-stabilized zirconia (111) substrate by pulsed-layer deposition (PLD). By using Ag-rich PLD target to compensate for Ag…
We use real-time reflection high energy electron diffraction intensity oscillation to establish the Te-rich growth dynamics of topological insulator thin films of Bi2Te3 on Si(111) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. In situ angle resolved…
We have selectively grown thin epitaxial GaAs films on Ge substrates with the aid of a 200 nm thin SiO2 mask layer. The selectively grown structures have lateral sizes ranging from 1 um width up to large areas of 1 by 1 mm2. The growth with…
We report on the temperature stability of pseudomorphic GeSn films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Ge(001) substrates. Both the growth temperature-dependence and the influence of post-growth annealing steps were investigated. In either…
Strontium titanate (SrTiO$_{3}$, STO) stands out as a promising material for various electronic applications thanks to its exceptional dielectric properties. Molecular beam epitaxy is one of the few techniques which allows epitaxial growth…
The surface structure of SrTiO3(001) thin films homoepitaxially grown by PLD in step-flow mode was characterized using low temperature STM. It was found that one-dimensional (1D) TiOx-based nanostructures were formed on the thin film…

The in-situ growth of superconducting MgB2 thin films was examined from various perspectives. The paper discusses (1) growth temperature, (2) the effect of excess Mg, (3) the effect of residual gas during growth, (4) the effect of in-situ…
We report on photoluminescence in the 3-7 $\mu$m mid-wave infrared (MWIR) range from sub-100 nm strained thin films of rocksalt PbSe(001) grown on GaAs(001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. These bare films, grown epitaxially at…
Single Crystalline Fe3-deltaO4 (0<=delta<=0.33) films have been epitaxially grown on InAs (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using O2 as source of active oxygen. Under optimum growth conditions in-situ real time reflection…
Control of thin film stoichiometry is of primary relevance to achieve desired functionality. Pulsed laser deposition ablating from binary-oxide targets (sequential deposition) can be applied to precisely control the film composition,…
Remote epitaxy is a promising approach for synthesizing exfoliatable crystalline membranes and enabling epitaxy of materials with large lattice mismatch. However, the atomic scale mechanisms for remote epitaxy remain unclear. Here we…
Epitaxial films which contains more than one crystallographic orientation are of interest due to the possibility of altered magnetic, electrical, and optical properties. Thin films of FeSe have been grown on single-crystal MgO substrates…
