This paper addresses the effect of disorder on the carrier transport mechanism of atomic layer deposited ZnO thin films as has been investigated by temperature dependent electrical resistivity measurements in the temperature range of 4.2K…
SrRuO$_3$, a ferromagnet with an approximately 160\,K Curie temperature, exhibits a $T^2$ dependent dc resistivity below $\approx$ 30 K. Nevertheless, previous optical studies in the infrared and terahertz range show non-Drude dynamics at…
We report on a combined structural and magnetotransport study of Hall bar devices of various lateral dimensions patterned side-by-side on epitaxial PdCoO$_2$ thin films. We study the effects of both the thickness of the PdCoO$_2$ film and…
Realizing experimental control of superconductivity is of paramount importance to advancing both basic research and technological applications. Disorder, generally existing in most superconductors, intricately interacts with Cooper pairs…
Using dc transport and wide-band spectroscopic ellipsometry techniques we study localization phenomena in highly disordered metallic \beta-Ta films grown by rf sputtering deposition. The dc transport study implies non-metallic behavior…
The delafossite metals PdCoO$_{2}$, PtCoO$_{2}$ and PdCrO$_{2}$ are among the highest conductivity materials known, with low temperature mean free paths of tens of microns in the best as-grown single crystals. A key question is whether…
In this paper we present normal state magnetoresistivity data of magnesium diboride epitaxial thin films with different levels of disorder, measured at 42K in magnetic fields up to 45 Tesla. Disorder was introduced in a controlled way…
We present measurements of the electrical resistivity, $\rho$, in epitaxial Cr films of different thicknesses grown on MgO (100) substrates, as a function of temperature, $T$. The $\rho(T)$ curves display hysteretic behavior in certain…
The effect of crystal lattice disorder on the conductivity and colossal magnetoresistance in La_{1-x}Ca_{x}MnO_{3} (x \approx 0.33) films has been examined. The lattice defects are introduced by irradiating the film with high-energy (\simeq…
Strained thin films of charge/orbital ordered (CO/OO) $Nd_{0.5}Ca_{0.5}MnO_3$ (NCMO) with various thickness have grown on (100)-SrTiO$_3$ and (100)-LaAlO$_3$ substrates, by using the Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique. The thickness of…
The layered delafossite metal PdCrO$_2$ is a natural heterostructure of highly conductive Pd layers Kondo coupled to localized spins in the adjacent Mott insulating CrO$_2$ layers. At high temperatures $T$ it has a $T$-linear resistivity…
We find an unambiguous relationship between disorder-driven features in the temperature dependence of the resistance and the behavior, as functions of the temperature, of the parameters necessary to describe some of the relaxation processes…
The lattice thermal expansion and conductivity in bulk Mo and W-based transition metal dichalcogenides are investigated by means of density functional and Boltzmann transport theory calculations. To this end, a recent van der Waals density…
To probe the influence of structural disorder on low-temperature behavior of magnetic penetration depth in electron-doped high-T_C superconductors, a comparative study of high-quality Pr_{1.85}Ce_{0.15}CuO_4 (PCCO) and…
We report the evolution of superconducting properties as a function of disorder in homogeneously disordered epitaxial NbN thin films grown on (100) MgO substrates, studied through a combination of electrical transport, Hall Effect and…
A novel feature of electron transport is explored through a thin film of varying impurity density with the distance from its surface. The film, attached to two metallic electrodes, is described by simple tight-binding model and its coupling…
Despite their highly anisotropic complex-oxidic nature, certain delafossite compounds (e.g., PdCoO2, PtCoO2) are the most conductive oxides known, for reasons that remain poorly understood. Their room-temperature conductivity can exceed…
The Pd, and Pt based ABO2 delafossites are a unique class of layered, triangular oxides with 2D electronic structure and a large conductivity that rivals the noble metals. Here, we report successful growth of the metallic delafossite PdCoO2…
The dynamics of the charge ordered (CO) state under non-equilibrium conditions created by strong dc-electric field (~106 V/cm) and photo-illumination with short (~ 6 ns) laser pulses is investigated in Bi1-xCaxMnO3 (x > 0.5) epitaxial…
