We present a comprehensive study of the thickness dependence of static and magneto-dynamic magnetic properties of La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$. Epitaxial pulsed laser deposited La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ / SrTiO$_3$(001) thin films in the…

By inserting a SrZrO$_3$ buffer layer between the film and the substrate, we demonstrate a significant reduction of the threading dislocation density with an associated improvement of the electron mobility in La:BaSnO$_3$ films. A room…

Thin films of the correlated transition-metal oxide LaNiO$_3$ undergo a metal-insulator transition when their thickness is reduced to a few unit cells. Here, we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to study the evolution of the…

We report on the synthesis of high-quality Co-doped ZnO thin films using the pulsed laser deposition technique on (0001)-Al$_2$O$_3$ substrates performed in an oxidizing atmosphere, using Zn and Co metallic targets. We firstly optimized the…

We report the characterization of the crystal structure, low-temperature charge and orbital ordering, transport, and magnetization of Pr_{0.6}Ca_{0.4}MnO_{3} films grown on LaAlO_{3}, NdGaO_{3}, and SrTiO_{3} substrates, which provide…

Through Sr and Ca doping to the La sites, we successfully obtained the hole doped La$_{3-x}$A$_x$Ni$_2$O$_7$ (A = Sr and Ca) thin films by using the pulsed-laser deposition technique. Temperature dependent resistivity shows an upturn at low…

Chromia (Cr2O3) has been extensively explored for the purpose of developing widespread industrial applications, owing to the convergence of a variety of mechanical, physical and chemical properties in one single oxide material. Various…

Using density-functional-theory (DFT) calculations with the HSE06 hybrid functional, we accurately evaluate the critical thickness of LaAlO3 film for the intrinsic doping in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) heterstructures. The calculated critical…

La0.7Ce0.3MnO3 is a relatively new addition in the family of colossal magnetoresistive manganites where the cerium ion is believed to be in the Ce4+ state. In this paper we report an extensive study the magnetotransport properties of laser…

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…

The optical properties of LaNiO$_3$ thin films are investigated over a wide energy and temperature range. Thin films of varying thickness were epitaxially grown by pulsed laser deposition on LaAlO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$ substrates. The optical…

Pulsed-laser deposition has been used to grow epitaxial thin films of the giant-dielectric-constant material CaCu_3Ti_4O_{12} on LaAlO_3 and SrTiO_3 substrates with or without various conducting buffer layers. The latter include…

Nanoscale layered ferromagnets have demonstrated fascinating two-dimensional magnetism down to atomic layers, providing a peculiar playground of spin orders for investigating fundamental physics and spintronic applications. However,…

With reduced dimensionality, it is often easier to modify the properties of ultra-thin films than their bulk counterparts. Strain engineering, usually achieved by choosing appropriate substrates, has been proven effective in controlling the…

The cobalt oxide system LaCoO$_3$ and its Sr-doped child compounds have been intensively studied for decades due to their intriguing magnetic and electronic properties. Preparing thin La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$CoO$_3$ (LSCO) films on different…

Recent experiments in La$_{1-x}$Ba$_x$MnO$_3$ thin films by Zhang {\it et al.} {[Phys. Rev. B {\bf 64}, 184404 (2001)]} showed that the ferromagnetic Curie temperature $T_c$ is enhanced (reduced) by tensile (compressive) strain. The results…

Sol-gel spin coating technique was employed to synthesize CuO thin films at 1500 rpm, 2200 rpm and 2400 rpm for 30 seconds, and subsequently annealed at 150-550{\deg}C for 1 hour. Multi-layered CuO thin films with 3 and 5 layers were…

Stoichiometric, epitaxial LaCrO3 films have been grown on TiO2-terminated SrTiO3(001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using O2 as the oxidant. Film growth occurred in a layer-by-layer fashion, giving rise to structurally excellent…

We report on the observation of metallic behavior in thin films of oxygen-deficient SrTiO$_3$ - down to 9 unit cells - when coherently strained on (001) SrTiO$_3$ or DyScO$_3$-buffered (001) SrTiO$_3$ substrates. These films have carrier…
