Electrical conductivity, Hall effect and magnetoresistance of In$_2$O$_3$:Sn thin films deposited on a glass substrates at different temperatures and oxygen pressures, as well as the films treated in a hydrogen plasma, have been…
We have studied the electronic properties of the 2D electron liquid present at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface in series of samples prepared at different growth temperatures. We observe that interfaces fabricated at 650{\deg}C exhibit the…
Annealing can increase the Curie temperature and net magnetization in uncapped (Ga,Mn)As films, effects that are suppressed when the films are capped with GaAs. Previous polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) studies of uncapped (Ga,Mn)As…
We report on the structural, electrical and magnetic properties of ZnCoO thin films grown by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) method using reactive organic precursors of zinc and cobalt. As a zinc precursor we applied either dimethylzinc or…
The magnetic and transport properties of La$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$CoO$_{3-\delta}$ film grown on a LaAlO$_3$ substrate by pulsed-laser deposition are studied. The properties are found to be influenced by a combined influence of the magnetic…
Dedicated control of oxygen vacancies is an important route to functionalizing complex oxide films. It is well-known that tensile strain significantly lowers the oxygen vacancy formation energy, whereas compressive strain plays a minor…
The properties of single-crystal SrTiO$_{3}$ substrates and homoepitaxial SrTiO$_{3}$ films grown by pulsed laser deposition have been compared, in order to understand the loss of interfacial conductivity when more than a critical thickness…
With pulsed laser deposition we have grown c-axis oriented thin films of the nominal composition LaMnO$_{3}$ (LMO) on LSAT(001) substrates. We find that, depending on the oxygen background pressure during growth, the LMO films contain…
In oxide epitaxy, the growth temperature and background oxygen partial pressure are considered as the most critical factors that control the phase stability of an oxide thin film. Here, we report an unusual case wherein diffusion of oxygen…
We present the results of Raman and photoluminescence (PL) studies on epitaxial anatase phase Ti$_{1-x}$Co$_x$O$_2$ films for $x$ = 0-0.07, grown by pulsed laser deposition. The low doped system ($x$=0.01 and 0.02) shows a Curie temperature…
Obtaining high-quality thin films of 5d transition metal oxides is essential to explore the exotic semimetallic and topological phases predicted to arise from the combination of strong electron correlations and spin-orbit coupling. Here, we…
We present the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of thin films with stoichiometry Tb$_{31}$Co$_{69}$ and Dy$_{31}$Co$_{69}$ deposited on naturally oxidized silicon Si (100) substrates. Samples with a thickness $d=50$ nm…
The oxygenation process at constant temperature of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) was systematically investigated in the temperature range from 300 $^o$C to 800 $^o$C. With this purpose, fully deoxygenated powder samples was exposed to…
Variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy studies on (110) oriented epitaxial thin films of La$_{0.350}$Pr$_{0.275}$Ca$_{0.375}$MnO$_3$ are reported in the temperature range of 77 to 340 K. The films, grown on lattice…
The presence of oxygen vacancy, as well as ordering of vacancies plays an important role in determining the electronic, ionic and thermal transport properties of many transition metal oxide materials. Controlling the concentration of oxygen…
Realization of a fully metallic two-dimensional electron gas at the interface between artificially-grown LaAlO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$ thin films has been an exciting challenge. Here we present for the first time the successful realization of a…
A series of 100 nm LaVO3 thin films have been synthesized on (001)-oriented SrTiO3 substrates using the pulsed laser deposition technique, and the effects of growth temperature are analyzed. Transport properties reveal a large electronic…
By laser ablation we prepared thin films of the colossal magnetoresistive compound La_(1-x)Ca_xMnO_3 with doping levels 0.1<x<0.9 on MgO substrates. X-ray diffraction revealed epitaxial growth and a systematic decrease of the lattice…
