Using scanning tunnel microscopy (STM), we investigate the superconductivity and vortex properties in topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ thin films grown on the iron-based superconductor FeTe$_{0.55}$Se$_{0.45}$. The proximity-induced…

Raman spectra of CaCuO2/SrTiO3 superlattices show clear spectroscopic marker of two structures formed in CaCuO2 at the interface with SrTiO3. For non-superconducting superlattices, grown in low oxidizing atmosphere, the 425 cm-1 frequency…

The deposition of one silicon monolayer on Ag(111) gives rise to a set of superstructures depending on growth conditions. These superstructures are correlated to the epitaxy between the honeycomb structure of silicon (so called silicene)…

The structural and magnetic properties of a new series of iridium-based honeycomb lattices with the formula Na3-delta(Na1-xMgx)Ir2O6 (x = 0 to 1) are reported. As x and delta are increased, the honeycomb lattice contracts and the strength…

We investigated the nature of transport and magnetic properties in SrIr0.5Ru0.5O3, (SIRO) which has characteristics intermediate between a correlated non-Fermi liquid state and an itinerant Fermi liquid state, by growing perovskite thin…

The interfacial structure of SrZr$_{x}$Ti$_{1-x}$O$_3$ films grown on semiconducting Ge substrates are investigated by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and first-principles density functional theory. By systematically tuning Zr content x, the…

Oxide heterointerfaces constitute a rich platform for realizing novel functionalities in condensed matter. A key aspect is the strong link between structural and electronic properties, which can be modified by interfacing materials with…

Ferroelectric domains were investigated using piezoresponse force microscopy in superlattices composed of multiferroic BiFeO3 and SrTiO3 layers. Compared to single BiFeO3 thin films, a reduction in the domains size and a suppression of the…

Honeycomb structure has a natural extension to the three dimensions. Simple examples are hyperhoneycomb and stripy-honeycomb lattices, which are realized in $\beta $-Li$_{2}$IrO$_{3}$ and $\gamma $-Li$_{2}$IrO$_{3}$, respectively. We…

We theoretically investigate the electronic band structures and magnetic properties of ilmenites with edge-sharing IrO$_6$ honeycomb layers, $A$IrO$_3$ with $A=$ Mg, Zn, and Mn, in comparison with a collinear antiferromagnet MnTiO$_3$. The…

Heterostructures of mixed-valence manganites are still under intense scrutiny, due to the occurrence of exotic quantum phenomena linked to electronic correlation and interfacial composition. For instance, if two anti-ferromagnetic…

The hybrid perovskite CH3NH3PbX3 (X= Cl, Br, I) is a promising material for developing novel optoelectronic devices. Owing to the intrinsic non-layer structure, it remains challenging to synthesize molecularly thin CH3NH3PbX3 with large…

Unlike widely explored complex oxide heterostructures grown along [001], the study of [111]-oriented heterointerfaces are very limited thus far. One of the main challenges is to overcome the polar discontinuity that hinders the epitaxy of…

Perovskite BaSnO3 has an Sn s-orbital conduction band minimum, which makes it of interest as a transparent-conducting oxide parent compound but also contraindicates the ferroelectric instability characteristic of the related compound…

We study the general phase diagram of correlated electrons for iridium-based (Ir) compounds on the hyperhoneycomb lattice---a crystal structure where the Ir$^{4+}$ ions form a three-dimensional network with three-fold coordination recently…

The deposition of one silicon monolayer on the silver (111) substrate in the temperature range 150-300$^\circ$C, gives rise to a mix of (4$\times$4), ($2\sqrt{3}\times 2\sqrt{3}$)R30$^\circ$ and ($\sqrt{13}\times\sqrt{13}$)R13.9$^\circ$…

Ab initio calculations are utilized as an input to develop a simple model of polarization in epitaxial short-period CaTiO3/SrTiO3/BaTiO3 superlattices grown on a SrTiO3 substrate. The model is then combined with a genetic algorithm…

Freestanding silicene, a monolayer of Si arranged in a honeycomb structure, has been predicted to give rise to massless Dirac fermions, akin to graphene. However, Si structures grown on a supporting substrate can show properties that…

Delafossites, comprised of noble metal (A+) and strongly correlated sublayers (BO2-), form natural superlattices with highly anisotropic properties. These properties hold significant promise for various applications, but their exploitation…

Radioluminescent nanostructures provide a pathway to the fabrication of next-generation scintillators with tunability in composition, size, and morphology, and spectral and temporal properties, as well as scalable processing. Here we create…
