A mathematical model is developed to analyze the growth/decay rate of surface perturbations of an ultrathin metal film on an amorphous substrate (SiO_{2}). The formulation combines the approach of Mullins [J. Appl. Phys. v30, 77, 1959] for…

The roughness of vapor-deposited thin films can display a nonmonotonic dependence on film thickness, if the smoothening of the small-scale features of the substrate dominates over growth-induced roughening in the early stage of evolution.…

We report the growth, structural and magnetic properties of the less studied Eu-oxide phase, Eu$_3$O$_4$, thin films grown on a Si/SiO$_2$ substrate and Si/SiO$_2$/graphene using molecular beam epitaxy. The X-ray diffraction scans show that…

(111)NiO epitaxial films are grown on c-sapphire substrates at various growth temperatures ranging from room-temperature to 600C using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. Two series of samples, where different laser fluences are used…

We study the effects of time-dependent substrate/film temperature in the deposition of a mesoscopically thick film using a statistical model that accounts for diffusion of adatoms without lateral neighbors whose coefficients depend on an…

We report the synthesis and characterization of Nd_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}MnO_{3} thin films grown by the Pulsed Laser Deposition technique on 100 -oriented LaAlO_{3} substrates. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies show that the films are 101 -oriented,…

Metal chalcogenides are promising layered topological materials, yet their electronic performance is often limited by parasitic bulk conduction arising from defects that introduce excess carriers and shift the Fermi level out of the…

Oblique angle deposited oxide thin films have opened up new dimensions in fabricating optical interference devices with tailored refractive index profile along thickness by tuning its microstructure by varying angle of deposition.…

Aluminosilicate (Al-Si-O) thin films containing up to 31 at. % Al and 23 at. % Si were prepared by reactive RF magnetron co-sputtering. Mechanical and structural properties were measured by indentation and specular reflectance infrared…

The recent discovery of superconductivity in Sr-doped NdNiO$_2$ films grown on SrTiO$_3$ started a novel field within unconventional superconductivity. To understand the similarities and differences between nickelate and cuprate layers on…

Tin (IV) oxide (SnO2) sols have been synthesized from SnCl2.2H2O precursor solution by applying two different processing conditions. The prepared sols were then deposited on UV-Ozone treated quartz and soda lime glass (SLG) substrates by…

Cubic spinel CoCr2O4 has attained recent attention due to its multiferroic properties. However, the Co site substitution effect on the structural and magnetic properties has rarely been studied in thin film form. In this work, the…

We study surface and bulk properties of porous films produced by a model in which particles incide perpendicularly to a substrate, interact with deposited neighbors in its trajectory, and aggregate laterally with probability of order $a$ at…

Substrate wettability alteration induced control over crack formation process in thin colloidal films has been addressed in the present study. Colloidal nanosuspension (53nm, mean particle diameter) droplets have been subjected to natural…

The structural, optical, morphological and nonlinear optical properties of Cu:ZnO spray-coated films are studied. The surface morphology of Cu:ZnO thin films turned out to be homogenous, crack free and well covered with pea-shaped grains.…

Here we demonstrate the controlled growth of Bi(110) and Bi(111) films on an (insulating) $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$(0001) substrate by surface X-ray diffraction and X-ray reflectivity using synchrotron radiation. At temperatures as low as 40 K,…

Orientation, structure and morphology in the early growth stages of CuO films on strontium titanate were studied by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction. Nanostructured CuO films were obtained by ex situ heat treatment at 970 K in oxygen…

Strained thin films of charge/orbital ordered (CO/OO) $Nd_{0.5}Ca_{0.5}MnO_3$ (NCMO) with various thickness have grown on (100)-SrTiO$_3$ and (100)-LaAlO$_3$ substrates, by using the Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique. The thickness of…

Structural and superconducting properties of high quality Niobium nanofilms with different thicknesses are investigated on silicon oxide and sapphire substrates. The role played by the different substrates and the superconducting properties…

Room-temperature transport properties (the zero-field resistivity, \rho 0, and the GMR) were studied for ED Ni50Co50/Cu multilayers as a function of the individual layer thicknesses and total multilayer thickness. The Cu deposition…
