Hybrid oxide molecular beam epitaxy (hMBE), a thin-film deposition technique in which transition metal cations are delivered using a metal-organic precursor, has emerged as the state-of-the-art approach to the synthesis of electronic-grade…

Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is a state-of-the-art technique for depositing thin films with precise stoichiometric control. However, when depositing oxides of perovskite-type ABO3, this process becomes challenging as controlling the flux…

We report on the growth of epitaxial Sr2RuO4 films using a hybrid molecular beam epitaxy approach in which a volatile precursor containing RuO4 is used to supply ruthenium and oxygen. The use of the precursor overcomes a number of issues…

SrVO3 and SrNbO3 are perovskite-type transition-metal oxides with the same d1 electronic configuration. Although SrNbO3 (4d1) has a larger d orbital than SrVO3 (3d1), the reported electrical resistivity of SrNbO3 is much higher than that of…
