Nano-acoustic strain generation in thin metallic films via ultrafast laser excitation is widely used in material science, imaging and medical applications. Recently, it was shown that transition metals, such as Titanium, exhibit enhanced…
Choice of material is ubiquitous in integrated photonics to design device properties, whereas changing material composition is much less common. With phase matching as an additional objective, constraints in depositing and patterning thin…
Thin films of thulium and ytterbium-doped titanium oxide were grown by metal-organic spray pyrolysis deposition from titanium(IV)oxide bis(acetylacetonate), thulium(III) tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionate) and ytterbium(III)…
High quality optical thin film materials form a basis for on-chip photonic micro- and nano-devices, where several photonic elements form an optical circuit. Their realization generally requires the thin film to have a higher refractive…
Magneli phases of titanium dioxide (such as Ti4O7, Ti5O9, etc.) provide electronic properties, namely a stable metallic behavior at room temperature. In this manuscript, we demonstrate that nanoscopic Magneli phases, formed intrinsically in…
Reduced titanium dioxide has recently attracted large attention, particularly for its unique co-catalyst-free H$_2$ heterogeneous photocatalytic application. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the reduced TiO$_2$ was previously…
In this study, we have delineated the preparation and influence of Fe doping on microstructural and optical properties of the pristine and Fe incorporated TiO$_2$ thin film with different Fe concentrations (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 at.% ). The…
The optical properties of thermally annealed TiO2 samples depend on their preparation process, and the TiO2 thin films usually exist in the form of anatase or rutile or the mixture of the two phases. The electronic structures and optical…

Crystalline Silicon-on-Sapphire (SOS) films were implanted with boron (B$^+$) and phosphorous (P$^+$) ions. Different samples, prepared by varying the ion dose in the range $10^{14}$ to 5 x $10^{15}$ and ion energy in the range 150-350 keV,…
Developing colloidal plasmonic nanomaterials with high carrier density that show optical resonances and photochemical activity extending from the visible to the mid-infrared (MIR) ranges remains a challenging pursuit. Here, we report the…
X-ray powder diffraction using a synchrotron light source reveals significant modifications to both morphology and strain state in Palladium nanocubes after oxidation. Short-range strain measured by the static component of the Debye-Waller…
Highly crystalline UO2 nanoparticles (NPs) with sizes of 2-3 nm were produced by fast chemical deposition of uranium(IV) under reducing conditions at pH 8-11. The particles were then characterized by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques…
Micro-Raman scattering and electron field emission characteristics of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) synthesized by metal assisted chemical etching (MACE) are investigated. Scanning electron microscopy images reveal the growth of well aligned…
