The formation of graphene on the SiC(000-1) surface (the C-face of the {0001} surfaces) has been studied, utilizing both disilane and neon environments. In both cases, the interface between the graphene and the SiC is found to be different…
Formation of topological quantum phase on conventional semiconductor surface is of both scientific and technological interest. Here, we demonstrate epitaxial growth of 2D topological insulator, i.e. quantum spin Hall (QSH) state, on Si(111)…
We use scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and Auger electron spectroscopy to study the behavior of adsorbed phosphine (PH$_{3}$) on Si(001), as a function of annealing temperature, paying particular attention to the formation of the Si-P…
We report the growth of atomically smooth, single crystalline Bi2Se3 thin films on Si(111) by using molecular beam epitaxy. Scanning tunneling microscopy, low-energy electron diffraction, X-ray photoelectron emission spectroscopy and Raman…
Graphene epitaxially grown on Ru(0001) displays a remarkably ordered pattern of hills and valleys in Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) images. To which extent the observed "ripples" are structural or electronic in origin have been much…
SnTe topological crystalline insulator nanowires have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on graphene/SiC substrates. The nanowires have cubic rock-salt structure, they grow along [001] crystallographic direction and have four sidewalls…
First principles density functional calculations are used to study the early oxidation stages of the Mg(0001) surface for oxygen coverages 1/16 <= Theta <= 3 monolayers. It is found that at very low coverages O is incorporated below the…
The superfluid response of nanoscale size quasi-2D He-4 droplets adsorbed on a graphite substrate is investigated by computer simulations. It is found that clusters comprising as few as 7 atoms are stable at temperatures lower than < 0.15…
Real time electron microscopy observation on morphological changes in gold nano structures deposited on Si (100) surfaces as a function of annealing temperatures has been reported. Two types of interfaces with the substrate silicon were…
We present a unified model of compound semiconductor growth based on kinetic Monte Carlo simulations in tandem with new experimental results that can describe and predict the mechanisms for the formation of various types of nanostructures…
Epitaxial bismuthene on SiC(0001) hosts symmetry-protected metallic edge states within a large bulk band gap, establishing it as a promising two-dimensional topological insulator for hightemperature quantum spin Hall (QSH) transport. Here…
An approach based on He scattering is used to develop an atomic-level structural model for an epitaxially grown disordered sub-monolayer of Ag on Pt(111) at 38K. Quantum scattering calculations are used to fit structural models to the…
We report on the epitaxial growth and surface structure of infinite-layer cuprate Sr1-xNdxCuO2 films on SrTiO3(001) substrates by combining ozone-assisted molecular beam epitaxy and in situ scanning tunneling microscopy. Careful substrate…
In the exothermic process of fission decay, an atomic nucleus splits into two or more independent fragments. Several aspects of nuclear fission are not properly understood, in particular the formation of the neck between the nascent…
The kinetics of intrinsic and dopant-enhanced solid phase epitaxy (SPE) are stud- ied in buried amorphous Si (a-Si) layers in which SPE is not retarded by H. As, P, B and Al profiles were formed by multiple energy ion implantation over a…

We report a method to grow B20 MnGe thin films using molecular-beam epitaxy, which employs an ultrathin CrSi template layer on Si(111). This layer is expected to be nonmagnetic, in contrast to MnSi and FeGe buffer layers that have been used…
In this study we report on a novel two-step epitaxial growth technique that enables a significant improvement of the crystal quality of nitrogen-polar GaN. The starting material is grown on 4{\deg} vicinal sapphire substrates by metal…
Several ten $\mu$m GaN have been deposited on a silicon substrate using a two-step hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) process. The substrates have been covered by AlN layers and GaN nanostructures grown by plasma-assisted molecular-beam…
The structure of titanium films on \alpha - Al2O3(0001) surfaces at room temperature was investigated through in situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The \alpha-phase of titanium was observed to grow with the Ti(0001)…
