We report the epitaxial stabilization of GdAuSb films and GdAuSb/LaAuSb superlattices via molecular beam epitaxy on (0001)-oriented Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ substrates. GdAuSb crystallize in the Au-Au dimerized YPtAs structure type (space group…
2H-TaS$_2$ few layers have been grown epitaxially onto GaN(0001). A high substrate growth temperature of 825$^{\circ}$C induces best structural properties of the overlayer, as revealed by in-situ electron diffraction (RHEED and LEED). The…
Iron(II) monoxide (FeO) is thermodynamically stable in the halite (w\"ustite) structure only at elevated temperatures in a typically non-stoichiometric, Fe-deficient, Fe$_{1-z}$O form that tends to phase separate and/or transform into…
BiFeO3 thin films have been grown on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates with pulsed laser deposition using Au as the top electrode. The resistive switching property of the Au/BiFeO3/Pt stack has been significantly improved by carefully tuning the…
The topological Weyl semimetal MoTe2, in the orthorhombic phase, is an important system both from the point of view of fundamental physics and potential applications. In this study we have investigated the elastic, electronic, bonding and…
To understand the effects of lattice mismatch on heteroepitaxial growth, we have studied the equilibrium structure and orientation relationships (ORs) of FCC films grown epitaxially on FCC substrates, using molecular dynamics simulations in…
Single-layer MoS2 is a direct-gap semiconductor whose electronic band structure strongly depends on the strain applied to its crystal lattice. While uniaxial strain can be easily applied in a controlled way, e.g., by bending of a flexible…
A macro-constitutive model for the deformation response of periodic rotating bistable auxetic surfaces is developed. Focus is placed on isotropic surfaces made of bistable hexagonal cells composed of six triangular units with two stable…
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) of single and few-layer thickness was exfoliated on SiO2/Si substrate and characterized by Raman spectroscopy. The number of S-Mo-S layers of the samples was independently determined by contact-mode atomic-force…
We present a first-principles analysis of the strain renormalization of the cation diffusivity on the GaAs(001) surface. For the example of In/GaAs(001)-c(4x4) it is shown that the binding of In is increased when the substrate lattice is…
Co$_{2}$TiSi films were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs(001) and analyzed using reflection high-energy electron diffraction, and electron microscopy. In addition, X-ray diffraction was combined with lattice parameter calculations by…
We have investigated the initial growth of Fe on GaAs(110) by means of density functional theory. In contrast to the conventionally used (001)-surface the (110)-surface does not reconstruct. Therefore, a flat interface and small diffusion…
Smectic orders on curved substrates can be described by differential forms of rank one (1-forms), whose geometric meaning is the differential of the local phase field of density modulation. The exterior derivative of 1-form is the local…
Employing ab initio calculations, we discuss chemical, mechanical, and dynamical stability of MoN-TaN solid solutions together with cubic-like MoN/TaN superlattices, as another materials design concept. Hexagonal-type structures based on…
A refined model of the origin of epitaxial tilt on miscut (or vicinal) substrates is explained by employing crystal modeling and reciprocal space analysis. The Nagai tilt model (H. Nagai, J. Appl. Phys., 45, 3789 (1974)) is often cited to…
A comparative first principles pseudopotential study of the adsorption and migration profiles of single Pt and Au atoms on the stoichiometric and reduced TiO2 rutile (110) surfaces is presented. Pt and Au behave similarly with respect to…
Structural moir\'e superstructures arising from two competing lattices may lead to unexpected electronic behavior, such as superconductivity or Mottness. Most investigated moir\'e heterostructures are based on van der Waals (vdW) materials,…
We have used density functional theory calculations based on the projector augmented wave method to investigate the electronic structure of Au-incorporated anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface. Due to the coordination with several level oxygens, Au…
Micromechanically exfoliated mono- and multilayers of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) are investigated by spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry. In combination with knife edge illumination, MoS2 flakes can be detected and classified on arbitrary…
This paper is devoted to investigate the pattern formation of a volume-filling chemotaxis model with logistic cell growth. We first apply the local stability analysis to establish sufficient conditions of destabilization for uniform…
