The electrical transport properties of amorphous Bi films prepared by sequential quench deposition have been studied in situ. A superconductor-insulator (S-I) transition was observed as the film was made increasingly thicker, consistent…
We study the transport properties of a quasi-two-dimensional diffusive normal metal film attached to a superconductor. We demonstrate that the properties of such films can essentially differ from those of quasi-one-dimensional systems: in…
Glasses usually represent the lower limit for the thermal conductivity of solids, but a fundamental understanding of lattice heat transport in amorphous materials can provide design rules to beat such a limit. Here we investigate the role…
We report direct observation of the evolution of local temperature inhomogeneity and the resulting atomic migration in a metal film (Ag on Si) stressed by a current by using a Scanning Thermal Microscope that allows simultaneous temperature…
We demonstrate controlled material transport driven by temperature gradients in thin freely suspended smectic films. The films with submicrometer thicknesses and lateral extensions of several millimeters were studied in microgravity during…
Vapour-deposited organic glasses are currently in use in many optoelectronic devices. Their operation temperature is limited by the glass transition temperature of the organic layers and thermal management strategies become increasingly…
Carrier dynamics in amorphous a-Si$_{1-x}$RE$_{x}$ (RE=Gd, Y) films has been studied in the doping regime close to the metal-insulator transition by means of infrared spectroscopy. Optical constants throughout the entire intra-gap region…
Two types of amorphous functional materials, based on lightsensitive inorganic compounds like Se and As20Se80 chalcogenide glass (ChG) were investigated with the aim to establish the influence of plasmonic fields, excited by the band-gap…
We have studied the effect of perpendicular magnetic fields and temperatures on the nonlinear electronic transport in amorphous Ta superconducting thin films. The films exhibit a magnetic field induced metallic behavior intervening the…
The thermal properties of amorphous materials have attracted significant attention due to their technological importance in electronic devices. Additionally, the disorder-induced breakdown of the phonon gas model makes vibrational transport…
The temperature-driven reorientation transition which, up to now, has been studied by use of Heisenberg-type models only, is investigated within an itinerant-electron model. We consider the Hubbard model for a thin fcc(100) film together…
Superconductivity in organic conductors is often tuned by the application of chemical or external pressure. With this type of tuning, orbital overlaps and electronic bandwidths are manipulated, whilst the properties of the molecular…
Above-threshold light emission from plasmonic tunnel junctions, when emitted photons have energies significantly higher than the energy scale of the incident electrons, has attracted much recent interest in nano-optics, while the underlying…
This research investigates the structural, topological, electrical and optical properties of pulsed laser deposited polycrystalline BiFeO3 thin films on silicon and glass substrate at varying deposition temperatures ranging from 400 degC to…
PtSe$_2$ ultrathin films are used as the channel of back-gated field-effect transistors (FETs) that are investigated at different temperatures and under super-continuous white laser irradiation. The temperature-dependent behavior confirms…
Recent experiments have demonstrated that the glass transition temperature of thin polymer films can be shifted as compared to the same polymer in the bulk, the amplitude and the sign of this effect depending on the interaction between the…
We report on the influence of the chemical composition on the electronic properties of molybdenum oxynitrides thin films grown by reactive sputtering on Si (100) substrates at room temperature. The partial pressure of Ar was fixed at 90 %,…
We investigated the transport properties under magnetic fields of up to 9 T for FeSe$_{1-x}$Te$_x$ thin films on CaF$_2$. Measurements of the temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity revealed that for $x = 0.2 - 0.4$, where…
The present study examines the electronic transport characteristics of amorphous semiconductors through TOF measurements and numerical simulations. The primary objective is to determine the DOS in amorphous selenium (a-Se) and to assess the…
The transport properties of organic light-emitting diodes in which the emissive layer is composed of conjugated polymers in the liquid-crystalline phase have been investigated. We have performed simulations of the current transient response…
