Thin p-type Sb-doped ZnO films were grown by filtered vacuum arc deposition (FVAD), on untreated glass samples. The arc cathode was prepared by dissolving Sb into molten Zn. The deposition was performed with 200 A arc current, running for…
Cubic InN films were grown on top of a c-GaN buffer layer by rf-plasma assisted MBE at different growth temperatures. X-Ray diffraction investigations show that the c-InN layers consist of a nearly phase-pure zinc blende (cubic) structure…
We performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy studies on a series of FeTe$_{1-x}$Se$_{x}$ monolayer films grown on SrTiO$_{3}$. The superconductivity of the films is robust and rather insensitive to the variations of the band…
A first-principles study has been performed to evaluate the electronic and optical properties of wurtzite Zn1-xCdxO up to x=0.25. We have employed the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) form of generalized gradient approximation within the…
Periodically patterned columnar thin films (PP-CTFs) were made by evaporating CaF2 and directing the vapor flux obliquely towards lithographically fabricated micrometer/sub-micrometer gratings. The growth of the PP-CTFs was controlled by…
Self-nucleation in CdZnTe crystal growth remains a significant challenge, despite numerous attempts to achieve large-grain single crystals by restricting multi-nucleation during growth process using the traveling heater method. In this…
The authors demonstrated that a full-Heusler Co2FeGe (CFG) alloy thin film was epitaxially grown by rapid-thermal-annealing-induced germanidation of an Fe/Co/pseudo-Ge(001)-on-insulator (GOI) multilayer formed on a Si-on-insulator (SOI)…
We investigated the high temperature decomposition behavior of wurtzite phase Ti$_{1-x}$Al$_{x}$N films using experimental methods and first-principles calculations. Single phase metastable wurtzite Ti$_{1-x}$Al$_{x}$N (x = 0.65, 0.75, 085…
Co-evaporation of Cu-KF-In-Se was performed on substrates with varied surface Na compositions. Compositions of interest for photovoltaic absorbers were studied, with ratios of (K+Cu)/In ~ 0.85 and K/(K+Cu) ~ 0 - 0.57. Soda-lime glass (SLG)…
A concept for the fabrication of highly symmetric quantum dots that are coherently embedded in a single crystalline matrix is demonstrated. In this approach, the formation of the quantum dots is induced by a transformation of an epitaxial…
We report the physical properties of Co$_2$CrAl Heusler alloy epitaxial thin films grown on single crystalline MgO(001) substrate using pulsed laser deposition technique. The x-ray diffraction pattern in $\theta$-2$\theta$ mode showed the…
Transition-metal chalcogenides (TMCs) materials have attracted increasing interest both for fundamental research and industrial applications. Among all these materials, two-dimensional (2D) compounds with honeycomb-like structure possess…
The effects of substrate treatment, temperature and composition on the surface morphology of Ni-Cr thin films grown on MgO(001) are studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). A combination of…
Two-dimensional magnetic materials (2D-MM) are an exciting playground for fundamental research, and for spintronics and quantum sensing. However, their large-grain large-area synthesis using scalable vapour deposition methods is still an…
GaSe is an important member of the post-transition metal chalcogenide family and is an emerging two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor material. Because it is a van der Waals material, it can be fabricated into atomic-scale ultrathin films,…
Sulfide Kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS), a nontoxic and low-cost photovoltaic material, has always being facing severe charge recombination and poor carrier transport, resulting in the cell efficiency record stagnating around 11% for years.…
The ability to control porosity in oxide thin films is one of the key factors that determine their properties. Despite the abundance of dry processes for the synthesis of oxide porous layers, the high porosity range is typically achieved by…
We studied the growth behavior, structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of cobalt nitride (Co-N) thin films deposited using direct current (dc) and high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) processes. The N$_2$ partial gas…
We report on the indigenous design and development of laboratory scale travelling heater method (THM) system to grow detector grade Cd0.9Zn0.1Te (CdZnTe) single crystals. THM system mainly consists of two-zone furnace with a tuneable…
Microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) has been traditionally used to synthesize carbon-based materials such as diamonds, carbon nanotubes and graphene. Here we report that a rapid and catalyst-free growth of SnSe thin films can…
