In this paper we report the observation of curent induced change of resistance of thin metallic oxide films. The resistance changes at a very low current (current density $J \geq 10^{3}$ A/cm$^{2}$). We find that the time dependence…
Sol-gel deposited (010) textured polycrystalline thin films of gallium ferrite (GaFeO3 or GFO) on n-Si(100) and Pt/Si(111) substrates are characterized for room temperature multiferroism. Structural characterization using X-ray diffraction…
Two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at the interface between SrTiO3 (STO) and LaAlO3 (LAO) insulating layer is supposed to possess strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling. To date, the inverse Edelstein effect (i.e. spin-to-charge…
The current work studies the effect of sintering conditions on the densification behavior, microstructure, and electrochemical performance of 6 mol% Sc2O3, 1 mol% CeO2 co-doped ZrO2 (6Sc1CeZr) for solid-state electrolyte applications. The…
Cold spray (CS) has emerged as an important additive manufacturing technology over the past decade. This study investigates the effect of oxide layers on the CS process, focusing on the deformation behavior of copper (Cu) and iron (Fe)…
Strontium titanate, SrTiO3, a widely used substrate material for electronic oxide thin film devices, has provided many interesting features. In a combination with a similar oxide material, LaAlO3, it has recently received great interest. It…
Reversible topotactic transitions between oxygen-vacancy-ordered structures in transition metal oxides provide a promising strategy for active manipulation of material properties. While transformations between various oxygen-deficient…
An attempt has been made to synthesize (Ca0.4Sr0.6)Bi4Ti4O15(CSBT) thin film using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and successfully optimized the deposition conditions. A good quality film with the desired phase is obtained at a substrate…
Experimental efforts to stabilize ferromagnetism in ultrathin films of transition metal oxides have so far failed, despite expectations based on density functional theory (DFT) and DFT+U. Here, we investigate one of the most promising…
We present a detailed study on the charge ordering (CO) transition in GdBaCo2O5 system by combining high resolution synchrotron powder/single crystal diffraction with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments as a function of…
We report in situ measurements of stress evolution in a silicon thin-film electrode during electrochemical lithiation and delithiation by using the Multi-beam Optical Sensor (MOS) technique. Upon lithiation, due to substrate constraint, the…
Pure rutile Co-doped TiO$_2$ films were fabricated successfully by the conventional pulsed laser deposition technique on silicon substrates from a ceramic target. Under the right fabrication conditions, Co concentration in the films could…
We present evidence that the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in a tensile strained NdNiO3 (NNO) film is facilitated by a redistribution of electronic density and neither requires Ni charge disproportionation nor symmetry change [1, 2].…
LaTiO$_{3+\delta/2}$, NdTiO$_{3+\delta/2}$, and Nd$_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$TiO$_{3+\delta/2}$ thin films have been epitaxially grown on (100)SrTiO$_{3}$ and (100)LaAlO$_{3}$ single crystal substrates by using the pulsed laser deposition technique.…
A hot filament chemical vapor deposition is an attractive technique to deposit carbon films of different applications. In this technique, it is also feasible to study the influence of chamber pressure in the deposition of carbon films. In…
Cu2Ta4O12 (CTaO) thin films were successfully deposited on Si(100) substrates by pulsed-laser deposition technique. The crystalline structure and the surface morphology of the CTaO thin films were strongly affected by substrate temperature,…
Passive radiative cooling drawing the heat energy of objects to the cold outer space through the atmospheric transparent window (8 um - 13 um) is significant for reducing the energy consumption of buildings. Daytime and nighttime radiative…
The fate of electric dipoles inside a Fermi sea is an old issue, yet poorly-explored. Sr$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$TiO$_{3}$ hosts a robust but dilute ferroelectricity in a narrow ($0.002<x<0.02$) window of substitution. This insulator becomes metallic…
Heteroepitaxy offers a new type of control mechanism for the crystal structure, the electronic correlations, and thus the functional properties of transition-metal oxides. Here, we combine electrical transport measurements, high-resolution…
We present a theoretical model and experimental demonstration of thin liquid film deformations due to a dielectric force distribution established by surface electrodes. We model the spatial electric field produced by a pair of parallel…
