We report on the electrical properties of polycrystalline NbO2 thin film vertical devices grown on TiN coated SiO2/Si substrates using pulsed laser deposition. First, we analyzed the thickness and contact size dependences of threshold…
Three-dimensional topological insulator films in contact with magnetic layers exhibit intriguing magneto-optical and magnetoelectric phenomena, but little is known beyond the linear response regime. We demonstrate that the presence of two…
The spin-orbit interaction in a solid couples the spin of an electron to its momentum. This coupling gives rise to mutual conversion between spin and charge currents: the direct and inverse spin Hall effects. The spin Hall effects have been…
The structure, composition and electrophysical characteristics of low-temperature silicon dioxide films under influence of various technology factors, such as ion implantation, laser irradiation, thermal and photonic annealing, have been…
Temperature dependent magneto-transport measurements in magnetic fields of up to 12 Tesla were performed on thin film vanadium dioxide (VO2) across the metal-insulator transition (MIT). The Hall carrier density increases by 4 orders of…
Interfacial electron transfer (IET) dynamics in 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3, 3, 3', 3'-tetramethylindodicarbocyanine (DiD) dye molecules / indium tin oxide (ITO) film system have been probed at the ensemble and single-molecule level by recording the…
Films of (FA$_{0.79}$MA$_{0.16}$Cs$_{0.05}$)$_{0.97}$Pb(I$_{0.84}$Br$_{0.16}$)$_{2.97}$ were grown over TiO$_{2}$, SnO$_{2}$, ITO, and NiO. Film conductivity was interrogated by measuring the in-phase and out-of-phase forces acting between…
When passing an optical medium in the presence of a magnetic field, the polarization of light can be rotated either when reflected at the surface (Kerr effect) or when transmitted through the material (Faraday rotation). This phenomenon is…
Composite oxides have been indeed proved to be valuable materials in optoelectronic applications. The combination of indium oxide and gallium oxide and other materials can lead to enhanced optical and electronic properties, making them…
We present results of electrical conduction studies of Ti/TiOx/Ti planar structures prepared by tip-induced local anodic oxidation (LAO) of titanium thin films. The prepared structures have shown almost linear I-V curves at temperatures…
We have used the electric--field effect to modulate the resistivity of the surface of underdoped Sr$_{0.88}$La$_{0.12}$CuO$_{2+x}$ thin films, allowing opposite modifications of the electron and hole density in the CuO$_2$ planes, an…
The experimental observation of the long-sought quantum anomalous Hall effect was recently reported in magnetically doped topological insulator thin films [Chang et al., Science 340, 167 (2013)]. An intriguing observation is a rapid…
Electron transport properties of a topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin film are studied in Hall-bar geometry. The film with a thickness of 10 nm is grown by van der Waals epitaxy on fluorophlogopite mica and Hall-bar devices are…
PdCoO$_2$, being highly conductive and anisotropic, is a promising material for fundamental and technological applications. Recently, reduced PdCoO$_2$ thin films were shown to exhibit ferromagnetism after hydrogen annealing. Here, we…
The spin Hall effect in tungsten films has been experimentally studied by using STM-based measurements. These measurements have been performed by using tungsten and iron coated tungsten tips. In the case of tungsten tips, it has been…
Black TiO2 nanoparticles with a crystalline-core and amorphous-shell structure exhibit superior optoelectronic properties in comparison with pristine TiO2. The fundamental mechanisms underlying these enhancements, however, remain unclear,…
Big pores, small pores, ordered pores, random pores, they all have a function and as is often found, show behaviour in new materials that is not always predicted or obvious at the outset. I started my research journey trying to put…
A significant anisotropy of the magnetic-field driven superconductor-insulator transition is observed in thin films of amorphous indium-oxide. The anisotropy is largest for more disordered films which have a lower transition field. At…
Thin films of the high-temperature superconductor HgBa$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{6+\delta}$ have been prepared on SrTiO$_3$ substrates by pulsed-laser deposition of precursor films and subsequent annealing in mercury-vapor atmosphere. The…
We propose a systematic approach to obtain various forms of insulating titanium oxynitrides Ti$_{n}$N$_{2}$O$_{2n-3}$ and we conduct a detailed study on its $n=2$ case, Ti$_{2}$N$_{2}$O. We study the energetics and the electronic structures…
