Multilayers of hydrogenated ultrathin (3 nm) amorphous a-Si and a-Ge layers prepared by sputtering have been studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to check the influence of annealing on their…
Thermal stability of hydrogenated amorphous Si/Ge multilayers has been investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Small-Angle X-Ray Diffraction (SAXRD) techniques. Amorphous H-Si/Ge…
Annealing of crystalline multilayers composed of two miscible elements usually causes interfacial mixing of the constituent atoms, possibly leading to the formation of binary alloys at the interfaces. Magnetron sputtered c-Ni/a-Zr…
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…
The present work is essentially focused on the study of optical and structural properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin films (a-Si:H) prepared by radio-frequency cathodic sputtering. We examine separately the influence of hydrogen…
The effect of increasing temperature on the structural stability and interactions of two kinds of Al/Zr (Al(1%wtSi)/Zr and Al(Pure)/Zr) multilayer mirrors are investigated. All Al/Zr multilayers annealed from 200^{\circ}C to 500^{\circ}C,…
Specific heat measurements of hydrogenated amorphous silicon prepared by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition show a large density of two-level systems at low temperature. Annealing at 200 {\deg}C, well below the growth temperature, does not…
The influence of thermal processing on the potential energy, atomic structure, and mechanical properties of metallic glasses is examined using molecular dynamics simulations. We study the three-dimensional binary mixture, which was first…
The structural relaxation of pure amorphous silicon (a-Si) and hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) materials, that occurs during thermal annealing experiments, has been analysed by Raman spectroscopy and differential scanning…
Based on neutron wide-angle diffraction and small-angle neutron scattering experiments, we show that there is a correlation between the preparational conditions of amorphous ice structures, their microscopic structural properties, the…
To understand surface structural modifications for Au/Si (100) system, a thin gold film of ~2.0 nm was deposited under ultra high vacuum (UHV) condition on reconstructed Si surfaces using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Post annealing was…
Si nanopillars of less than 50 nm diameter have been irradiated in a helium ion microscope with a focused Ne$^+$ beam. The morphological changes due to ion beam irradiation at room temperature and elevated temperatures have been studied…
We have investigated the response of amorphous silicon (a-Si), in particular crystallization, to external mechanical shear deformations using classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and the empirical Environment Dependent Inter-atomic…
A secondary $\beta$-relaxation process is often the dominant source of atomic dynamics below $T_\mathrm{g}$ in many glass forming systems. Recent studies reported the presence of $\beta$-relaxations in amorphous phase-change materials…
The effects of thermal treatments on metallic glass nanolaminates (NLs), with a composition of Zr$_{24}$Cu$_{76}$ and Zr$_{61}$Cu$_{39}$ and a bilayer period of 50 nm, were explored to control their mechanical properties through…
Experimental results on the formation of molecular hydrogen on amorphous silicate surfaces are presented for the first time and analyzed using a rate equation model. The energy barriers for the relevant diffusion and desorption processes…
We report elastic and inelastic neutron scattering experiments on different amorphous ice modifications. It is shown that an amorphous structure (HDA') indiscernible from the high-density phase (HDA), obtained by compression of crystalline…
We report annealing induced exchange bias in Fe-Cu-Pt based heterostructures with Cu as an intermediate layer (Fe/Cu/Pt heterostructure) and capping layer (Fe/Pt/Cu heterostructure). Exchange bias observed at room temperature (300 K) is…
The article presents an experimental study of an issue of whether the formation of arrays of Ge quantum dots on the Si(001) surface is an equilibrium process or it is kinetically controlled. We deposited Ge on Si(001) at the room…
Specific heat measurements from 2 to 300 K of hydrogenated amorphous silicon prepared by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition show a large excess specific heat at low temperature, significantly larger than the Debye specific heat calculated…
