We have investigated the Co-doping dependence of the structural, transport, and magnetic properties of \epsilon-FeCoSi epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on silicon (111) substrates. Low energy electron diffraction, atomic force…

Si/Ge heteroepitaxial dots under tensile strain are grown on nanostructured Ge substrates produced by high-temperature flash heating exploiting the spontaneous faceting of the Ge(001) surface close to the onset of surface melting. A very…

Silicon-Germanium (Si$_{1-x}$Ge$_x$) layers are commonly used as stressors in the gate of MOSFET devices. They are expected to introduce a beneficial stress in the drift and channel regions to enhance the electron mobility. When reducing…

Epitaxial growth of III-V semiconductors on Si is a promising route for silicon photonics. Threading dislocations and the residual thermal stress generated during growth are expected to affect the thermal conductivity of the III-V…

In this work we investigate influence of substrate temperature on the surface morphology for substrate coverage below one monolayer. The model of film growth is based on random deposition enriched by limited surface diffusion. Also…

We report comprehensive x-ray diffraction studies of the crystal structure and epitaxy of thin films of the topological insulator Bi2Te3 grown on Si (1 1 1). The films are single crystals of high crystalline quality, which strongly depends…

Growth of narrow-neck, epitaxial as well as non-epitaxial and nearly spherical Ge islands on air-exposed Si(111)-(7\times7) surfaces has been investigated by in-situ scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and ex-situ high resolution…

We studied the low temperature (T<130K) growth of Ag on Si(001) and Si(111) flat surfaces prepared by Si homo epitaxy with the aim to achieve thin metallic films. The band structure and morphology of the Ag overlayers have been investigated…
