Solute segregation in materials with grain boundaries (GBs) has emerged as a popular method to thermodynamically stabilize nanocrystalline structures. However, the impact of varied GB crystallographic character on solute segregation has…
Silicon-germanium heterostructures have successfully hosted quantum dot qubits, but the intrinsic near-degeneracy of the two lowest valley states poses an obstacle to high fidelity quantum computing. We present a modification to the Si/SiGe…
Germanium arsenide (GeAs) is a layered semiconductor with remarkably anisotropic physical, thermoelectric and optical properties, and a promising candidate for multifunctional devices based on in-plane polarization dependent response.…
This work studies the spontaneous self-assembly of Ge QDs on AlAs, GaAs, and AlGaAs by high temperature in-situ annealing in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The morphology of Ge dots formed on AlAs are observed by atom probe tomography, which…
Predictive first-principles calculations suggest graphitic-like GaN to be theoretically possible. Thus far, it has not been experimentally reported. We report on GaN monolayer in a buckled geometry obtained in confinement at graphene/SiC…
We present the first direct study of charge density wave (CDW) formation in quasi-2D single layer LaTe_2 using high-resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). CDW formation is…
The synthesis of two-dimensional van der Waals magnets has paved the way for both technological applications and fundamental research on magnetism confined to ultra-small length scales. Edge magnetic moments in ferromagnets are expected to…
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a particularly interesting member of the family of two-dimensional (2D) materials due to its semiconducting and tunable electronic properties. Currently, the most reliable method for obtaining high-quality…
The nucleation, distribution and composition of erbium embedded in a SiO$_2$-Si layer were studied with High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS), Energy Filtered TEM (EFTEM),…
The long-missing polarization-induced two-dimensional hole gas is finally observed in undoped gallium nitride quantum wells. Experimental results provide unambiguous proof that a 2D hole gas in GaN grown on AlN does not need acceptor…
The ability of different materials to display self-limiting growth has recently attracted enormous attention due to the importance of nanoscale materials in applications for catalysis, energy conversion, (opto)electronics, etc. Here, we…
The role of the sublimation of the compound and of the evaporation of the constituents from the gold nanoparticle during the growth of semiconductor nanowires is exemplified with CdTe-ZnTe heterostructures. Operating close to the upper…
The fabrication of more and more miniaturized electronic and photonic devices relies on new, ingenious methods for the fabrication of spatially controlled nanostructures. Examples are electronic devices based on semiconducting nanowires and…
The n-type doping of Ge is a self-limiting process due to the formation of vacancy-donor complexes (DnV with n <= 4) that deactivate the donors. This work unambiguously demonstrates that the dissolution of the dominating P4V clusters in…
Enhanced supercontinuum generation (SCG) is experimentally demonstrated in integrated silicon nitride (Si3N4) waveguides incorporating highly nonlinear graphene oxide (GO) in the form of two dimensional (2D) films. Onchip integration of the…
The report studies transformation of a Ge granular film deposited at room temperature on the Si(001) surface to the Ge/Si(001) heterostructure as a result of rapid heating and annealing at 600C. As a result of the short-term annealing at…
Ge-on-Si structures in-situ doped with phosphorus or arsenic via metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) were investigated. Surface roughness, strain, threading dislocation desnity, Si-Ge interdiffusion, dopant diffusion, and…
2D non-van der Waals (vdW) Cr5Te8 has attracted widespread research interest for its air stability and thickness-dependent magnetic properties. However, exploring new methods for growing larger-scale ultrathin 2D Cr5Te8 remains challenging.…
Nano granular metallic iron (Fe) and titanium dioxide (TiO$_{2-\delta}$) were co-deposited on (100) lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO$_3$) substrates in a low oxygen chamber pressure using a pulsed laser ablation deposition (PLD) technique. The…
With an MBE technique, a Si/Ge heterostructures are prepared containing layers of nanostructured Ge with quantum dots of size of several nanometers. The effective conductivity of the layers is determined by a quasioptical…
