Inductance of superconducting thin-film inductors and structures with linewidth down to 250 nm has been experimentally evaluated. The inductors include various striplines and microstrips, their 90-degree bends and meanders, interlayer vias,…
Possibility for the formation of stable Al atomic wire on the Si(211) surface is investigated using density functional theory based total energy calculations. The stable adsorption sites and the surface structures at various sub-monolayer…
Vapor growth of semiconductors is analyzed using recently obtained dependence of the adsorption energy on the electron charge transfer between the surface adsorbed species and the bulk [Krukowski et al. J. Appl. Phys. 114 (2013) 063507,…
The presence of wave tunneling and the 'growing evanescent envelope' for field distributions in suitably designed, periodically layered stacks of frequency selective surfaces (FSS) is discussed in this paper. Here it is shown that a setup…
We demonstrate a technique to produce thin graphene layers on C-face of SiC under ultra high vacuum conditions. A stack of two SiC substrates comprising a half open cavity at the interface is used to partially confine the depleted Si atoms…
We present an ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study of structural defects in molybdenum disulfide thin films grown on silicon substrates by chemical vapor deposition. A distinctive type of grain boundary periodically…
The origin of the large-scale stripe pattern of epitaxial silicene on the ZrB$_2$(0001) surface observed by scanning tunneling microscope experiments is revealed by first-principles calculations. Without stripes, the…
Bismuth (Bi) atomic layers are known as 2D topological materials with variety of the electronic structures and topological orders depending on the number of stacking layers. Recently, it is reported that few layers of Bi grown on…
The kagome superconductor family AV3Sb5 (A=Cs, K, Rb) emerged as an exciting platform to study exotic Fermi surface instabilities. Here we use spectroscopic-imaging scanning tunneling microscopy (SI-STM) and angle-resolved photoemission…
We propose a natural way to create quantum-confined regions in graphene in a system that allows large-scale device integration. We show, using first-principles calculations, that a single graphene layer on a trenched region of…
The structure and electrical properties of a two-dimensional (2D) sheet of silicon on a graphene substrate are studied using first-principles calculations. A new corrugated rectangular structure of silicon is proposed to be the most…
Ultra-thin 3D topological insulators provide a stage to study the surface physics of such materials by minimizing the bulk contribution. Further, the experimentally verified snowflake like structure of the Fermi surface leads to a hexagonal…
Nanoscale superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) are fabricated in-situ from a single Bi$_{0.26}$Sb$_{1.74}$Te$_{3}$ nanoribbon that is defined using selective-area growth and contacted with superconducting Nb electrodes via…
We study theoretically the distributions of charge and spin polarization of a topological insulator ribbon, with a realistic rectangular cross section. Due to constriction in two lateral directions, the surface states discretize into a…
For most practical applications in electronic devices, two-dimensional materials should be transferred onto semiconducting or insulating substrates, since they are usually generated on metallic substrates. However, the transfer often leads…
The integration of topological insulators (TIs) with graphene offers a pathway to engineer hybrid quantum states, yet the impact of strain at the 2D limit remains a critical open question. Here, we investigate the structural properties of…
We report on the Fermi surfaces and superconducting parameters of CaSb$_2$ single crystals (superconducting below $T_{\text{c}}\sim 1.8~\text{K}$) grown by the self-flux method. The frequency of de-Haas-van-Alphen and Shubnikov-de-Haas…
The statistical mechanics of a ribbon polymer made up of two semiflexible chains is studied using both analytical techniques and simulation. The system is found to have a crossover transition at some finite temperature, from a type of short…
We have used medium-energy ion scattering (MEIS) to quantitatively analyze the structure of holmium silicide islands grown on the Si(100) surface. Structure fitting to the experimental data unambiguously shows that the tetragonal silicide…
Growth of atomic indium chains - 1D islands - on the Si(100)-2x1 surface was observed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at room temperature and simulated by means of a kinetic Monte Carlo method. Density of indium islands and island…
