This paper reports optical and nanomechanical properties of seldom studied highly a-axis oriented AlN thin films for the first time. These films were deposited by reactive DC magnetron sputtering technique at an optimal target to substrate…

Two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride (BN) nanosheets are excellent dielectric substrate for graphene, molybdenum disulfide and many other 2D nanomaterials based electronic and photonic devices. To optimize the performance of these…

Thermal decomposition of wurtzite (0001)-oriented GaN was analyzed: in vacuum, under active N exposure, and during growth by rf-plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The GaN decomposition rate was determined by measurements of the Ga…

While a linear growth behavior is one of the fingerprints of textbook atomic layer deposition processes, the growth often deviates from that behavior in the initial regime, i.e. the first few cycles of a process. To properly understand the…

The origin of ferromagnetism in nanoparticles of nonmagnetic oxides is an interesting area of research. In the present work, transport properties of niobium thin films, with beta-Ga2O3 nanoparticles embedded within them, are presented.…

Ultrathin aluminum nitride (AlN) films are of great interest for integration into nanoelectromechanical systems for actuation and sensing. Given the direct relationship between crystallographic texture and piezoelectric response, x-ray…

Atactic polystyrene of two different molecular weights (560900 g.mol-1 and 212400 g.mol-1) have been studied as spin-coated films of thickness varying from ~30 nm to ~250 nm, i.e., ~2Rg to ~12Rg where Rg is the unperturbed radius of…

Boron carbonitride (BxCyNz) represents an interesting family of materials containing all light elements and two dimensional graphene like hybrid layers. Although rich literature exists on this peculiar material in chemically processed form,…

In the present work, we systematically studied the effect of Al doping on the phase formation of iron nitride (Fe-N) thin films. Fe-N thin films with different concentration of Al (Al=0, 2, 3, 6, and 12 at.%) were deposited using dc…

This paper presents the preliminary results of optical characterization using spectroscopic ellipsometry of wurtzite indium gallium nitride (InxGa1-xN) thin films with medium indium content (0.38<x<0.68) that were deposited on silicon…

Nanocrystalline FeCuNbSiB thin films were fabricated through magnetron sputtering followed by heat treatment, resulting in samples characterized by low coercivity and high effective magnetization. Comprehensive microstructural analysis,…

Computationally guided high-throughput synthesis is used to explore the Zn-V-N phase space, resulting in the synthesis of a novel ternary nitride Zn$_2$VN$_3$. Following a combinatorial PVD screening, we isolate the phase and synthesize…

Unlike c-plane nitrides, ``non-polar" nitrides grown in e.g. the a-plane or m-plane orientation encounter anisotropic in-plane strain due to the anisotropy in the lattice and thermal mismatch with the substrate or buffer layer. Such…

Electronic nematicity in iron pnictide materials is coupled to both the lattice and the conducting electrons, which allows both structural and transport observables to probe nematic fluctuations and the order parameter. Here we combine…

The broad-band optical spectroscopy was used to study the optical and the hidden transport properties of the Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ superconducting films with different Ni contents. The normal state data were analyzed using a…

Refractory metals that can withstand at high temperatures and harsh conditions are of utmost importance for solar-thermal and energy storage applications. Thin films of TiN have been deposited using cathodic vacuum arc deposition (CVA) at…

The electronic structure and chemical bonding in reactively magnetron sputtered ZrHx (x=0.15, 0.30, 1.16) thin films with oxygen content as low as 0.2 at% are investigated by 4d valence band, shallow 4p core-level and 3d core-level X-ray…

Ruthenium metal and its oxide stand out for their exceptional catalytic activity, stability in Oxygen Evolution Reactions (OER) and electrical conductivity, making them indispensable in electronics and electrocatalysis. In this study,…
