We report the bulk sensitive Hard X-ray (hv=5.95keV) core level photoemission spectroscopy to investigate the intrinsic electronic structure of strained (La0.85Ba0.15)MnO3 thin films. In a 20nm thick well-strained film with strongly…
Many linked processes occur concurrently in strongly excited semiconductors, such as interband and intraband absorption, scattering of electrons and holes by the heated lattice, Pauli blocking, bandgap renormalization and the formation of…
Epitaxial thin films of (Sn$_{x}$Pb$_{1-x}$)$_{1-y}$In$_{y}$Te were successfully grown by molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE) in a broad range of compositions (0 $\leq$ x $\leq$ 1, 0 $\leq$ y $\leq$ 0.23). We investigated electronic phases of the…
We demonstrate an efficient double-layer light absorber by exciting plasmonic phase resonances. We show that the addition of grooves can cause mode splitting of the plasmonic waveguide cavity modes and all the new resonant modes exhibit…
Vanadium silicide (V$_3$Si) is a promising superconductor for integration with silicon-based electronics, however the interfacial growth kinetics have a strong influence on the resulting superconducting properties and are not yet fully…
Photonic or electronic confinement effects in nanostructures become significant when one of their dimension is in the 5-300 nm range. Improving their development requires the ability to study their structure - shape, strain field,…
We report observations of unusual normal-state electronic conduction properties and superconducting characteristics of high-quality CoSi$_2$/Si films grown on silicon Si(100) and Si(111) substrates. A good understanding of these features…
In this work, the results of fabricating ultra thin VO$_2$ films on the technologically relevant amorphous SiO$_2$ surface using reactive DC magnetron sputtering are presented. Results indicate that a post deposition anneal in low partial…
The low frequency complex impedance of a high resistivity 92 {\mu}{\Omega} cm and 100 nm thick TiN superconducting film has been measured via the transmission of several high sensitivity GHz microresonators, down to Tc/50. The temperature…
Monolayer semiconductors are atomically thin quantum wells with strong confinement of electrons in two-dimensional (2D) plane. Here, we experimentally study the out-of-plane polarizability of excitons in hBN-encapsulated monolayer WSe$_{2}$…
We measured the THz reflectance properties of a high quality epitaxial thin film of the Fe-based superconductor BaFe$_{1.84}$Co$_{0.16}$As$_2$ with T$_c$=22.5 K. The film was grown by pulsed laser deposition on a DyScO$_3$ substrate with an…
Advances in epitaxy of transition metal oxides with perovskite structure allow novel insights into transport mechanisms of strongly correlated electron systems, which are of interest for future transparent electronics. In this study, we…
NiO/ZnO-based thin films, including single-layer and heterostructure configurations, were synthesized to investigate the influence of stacking order on their electrochemical performance for supercapacitor applications. To improve the…
We report on very high enhancement of thin layer's absorption through band-engineering of a photonic crystal structure. We realized amorphous silicon (aSi) photonic crystals, where slow light modes improve absorption efficiency. We show…
The photoluminescence spectra of spherical CdTe nanocrystals with zincblende structure are studied by size-selective spectroscopic techniques. We observe a resonant Stokes shift of 15 meV when the excitation laser energy is tuned to the red…
We report an observation of metal-insulator transition in a thin film of SnSe$_2$. The room-temperature carrier concentration of SnSe$_2$ film was increased by electrostatic doping to 1.14$\times$ 10$^{13}$ cm$^{-2}$. A crossover from…
Using a single-band model, the lowest transition energy was analysed between the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the conduction band and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of the valence band. We focus on…

Thin films of $\alpha$-MoGe show progressively reduced $T_{c}$'s as the thickness is decreased below 30 nm and the sheet resistance exceeds 100 $\Omega/\Box$. We have performed far-infrared transmission and reflection measurements for a set…
