V$_3$Si thin films are known to be superconducting with transition temperatures up to 15 K, depending on the annealing temperature and the properties of the substrate underneath. Here we investigate the film structural properties with the…
Scaling superconducting digital circuits requires fundamental changes in the current material set and fabrication process. The transition to 300 mm wafers and the implementation of advanced lithography are instrumental in facilitating…
We studied the effect of magnetic doping with Gd atoms on the superconducting properties of amorphous Mo70Ge30 films. We observed that in uniform films deposited on amorphous Ge, the pair-breaking strength per impurity strongly decreases…
Ultrathin amorphous Bi films, patterned with a nano-honeycomb array of holes, can exhibit an insulating phase with transport dominated by the incoherent motion of Cooper pairs of electrons between localized states. Here we show that the…
Pr$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$($x\approx$0.5) thin films have been grown on SrTiO$_3$ and YSZ substrates by the pulsed laser ablation. The substrate temperature dependence of orientation and superconducting poperties were…
The copper ferrite thin films have been deposited by RF sputtering at a 50W rf power. The As-deposited films are annealed in air at $800^{\circ}$C and then slow cooled. The As-deposited (AD) as well as slow cooled (SC) films are studied…
We have measured the heat conduction between 0.05 K and 1.0 K of high purity silicon wafers carrying on their polished faces a variety of thin dielectric films and polycrystalline thin metallic films. Using a Monte Carlo simulation to…
Superconducting Nb3Sn films were fabricated on sapphire and fine grain Nb substrates by magnetron sputtering from a single stoichiometric Nb3Sn target. The structural, morphological and superconducting properties of the films annealed for…
Titanium nitride (TiNx) films are ideal for use in superconducting microresonator detectors because: a) the critical temperature varies with composition (0 < Tc < 5 K); b) the normal-state resistivity is large, \rho_n ~ 100 $\mu$Ohm cm,…
W-B-C films were deposited on Si(100) substrates held at elevated temperature by reactive sputtering from a W target in Kr/trimethylboron (TMB) plasmas. Quantitative analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the films…
We have grown thin films of (100) oriented La_{0.67}(Ca_{x}Sr_{1-x})_{0.33}MnO_{3} on (100) NdGaO_{3} substrates by off-axis sputtering. We have looked at the changes in the resistivity and magnetoresistance of the samples as the Ca/Sr…
In this work, the results of fabricating ultra thin VO$_2$ films on the technologically relevant amorphous SiO$_2$ surface using reactive DC magnetron sputtering are presented. Results indicate that a post deposition anneal in low partial…
The electrical resistivity of La$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$MnO$_{3}$ thin films grown on (001) NdGaO$_{3}$ and (100) SrTiO$_{3}$ substrates by off-axis sputtering has been studied as a function of the Calcium doping level. The samples have very narrow…
Copper ferrite thin films were deposited on amorphous quartz substrates. The as deposited films were annealed in air and either quenched or slow cooled. Magnetization studies were carried out on the as deposited as well as annealed films…
Hot wall technique was used to grow block single crystal films of Bi_2Te_3 and solid solutions of Bi_(0.5)Sb_(1.5)Te_3 on mica (muscovite) substrates. X-ray diffraction studies demonstrated that the crystalline c-axis in the films was…
Quantum computation based on superconducting circuits utilizes superconducting qubits with Josephson tunnel junctions. Engineering high-coherence qubits requires materials optimization. In this work, we present two superconducting thin film…
The electronic properties of superconducting Sn films ($T_c \approx$ 3.8 K) change significantly when reducing the film thickness down to a few nm, in particular close to the percolation threshold. The low-energy electrodynamics of such Sn…
The magnetic and electrical transport properties of Mn-doped amorphous silicon (\textit{a-}Mn$_{x}$Si$_{1-x}$) thin films have been measured. The magnetic susceptibility obeys the Curie-Weiss law for a wide range of $x$ (0.005-0.175) and…
Porous silicon, obtained by electrochemical etching, has been used as a substrate for the growth of nanoperforated Nb thin films. The films, deposited by UHV magnetron sputtering on the porous Si substrates, inherited their structure made…
We report the magnetotransport properties of thin polycrystalline films of the recently discovered non-oxide perovskite superconductor MgCNi3. CNi3 precursor films were deposited onto sapphire substrates and subsequently exposed to Mg vapor…
