Thermal conductivities are routinely calculated in molecular dynamics simulations by keeping the boundaries at different temperatures and measuring the slope of the temperature profile in the bulk of the material, explicitly using Fourier's…
We report the direct observation of superconductivity in nitridized-aluminum thin films. The films are produced by sputtering deposition of aluminum in a controlled mixture of nitrogen diluted in argon. The concentration of applied nitrogen…

Thermochromic vanadium dioxide thin films have attracted much attention recently for constructing variable-emittance coatings upon its insulator-metal phase transition for dynamic thermal control. However, fabrication of high-quality…
Autonomous experimentation has emerged as an efficient approach to accelerate the pace of materials discovery. Although instruments for autonomous synthesis have become popular in molecular and polymer science, solution processing of hybrid…
Hematite Fe$_2$O$_3$ seed layers are shown to constitute a pathway to prepare highly conductive transparent tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) thin films by room temperature magnetron sputtering. Conductivities of up to $\sigma = 3300\,{\rm…
The integration of machine learning and robotics into thin film deposition is transforming material discovery and optimization. However, challenges remain in achieving a fully autonomous cycle of deposition, characterization, and…
Thermal conductivities $\Lambda $ of amorphous carbon thin films are measured in the temperatures range 80--400 K using the $3\omega $ method. Sample films range from soft a-C:H prepared by remote-plasma deposition ($\Lambda = 0.20$ W…

Designing a thin film structure often begins with choosing a film deposition method that employs a specific primary process by which chemical species are formed and transported. In other words, a film deposition system in which two…
The Si based TiO2 thin films were prepared via the combination both of Sol-Gel and Spin-Coating method. The films were sintered at 850 degrees Celsius for half an hour, and the resulting films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD)…
