Heusler compounds, in both cubic and hexagonal polymorphs, exhibit a remarkable range of electronic, magnetic, elastic, and topological properties, rivaling that of the transition metal oxides. To date, research on these quantum materials…

This paper presents the development of scientific instrumentation for the fabrication of ferromagnetic thin films, by sputtering technique, for the use of 2-inch-diameter targets. Thin films were deposited using Permalloy alloy (Ni80Fe20)…

The recent study of oxides led to the discovery of several new fascinating physical phenomena. High-temperature superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, dilute magnetic doping, or multiferroicity were discovered and investigated in…

Uranium dihydride UH2 is a metastable phase unknown in bulk form but accessible through thin-film synthesis. We prepared UH2 films by reactive dc sputtering on CaF2(001) or Si(001) substrates, the latter equipped with a Mo buffer layer to…

Epitaxial thin films of gallium iron oxide (GaFeO3) are grown on (001) silicon by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) using yttrium-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) buffer layer. The crystalline template buffer layer is in-situ PLD grown through the…

Ferroelectric (Fe) materials-based devices show great promise for non-volatile memory applications, yet few demonstrate reliable operation at elevated temperatures. In this work, we demonstrate Ni/Al0.68Sc0.32N/4H-SiC…

Based on our experimental and theoretical studies, we report the identification of the quaternary Heusler alloy, CoRuVSi as a new member of the recently discovered spin semimetals class. Spin polarised semimetals possess a unique band…

Half-metallic antiferromagnets are the ideal materials for spintronic applications since their zero magnetization leads to lower stray fields and thus tiny energy losses. Starting from the Mn$_2$VAl and Mn$_2$VSi alloys we substitute Co or…

Gallium oxide (Ga$_2$O$_3$) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor with exceptional electrical and optical properties, making it a promising material for optoelectronic and sensing applications. In this work, we demonstrate for the first time the…

Anatase Ti0.96Co0.04O2 films were grown epitaxially on SrTiO3 (001) substrates by using plused laser deposition with in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction. The oxygen partial pressure, PO2, during the growth was systematically…

The manipulation of the magnetization by spin-orbit torques (SOTs) has recently been extensively studied due to its potential for efficiently writing information in magnetic memories. Particular attention is paid to non-centrosymmetric…

Half-Heusler (HH) alloys have attracted considerable interest as promising thermoelectric (TE) materials in the temperature range around 700 K and above, which is close to the temperature range of most industrial waste heat sources. The…

5$\mu$m thick NdFeB films have been sputtered onto 100 mm Si substrates using high rate sputtering (18 $\mu$m/h). Films were deposited at ≤ 500 C and then annealed at 750 C for 10 minutes. While films deposited at temperatures up to…

Superconducting thin films have been prepared on Si-substrates, using pulsed laser deposition from a target composed of a mixture of Mg and MgB2 powders. The films were deposited at room temperature and post-annealed at 600 degrees C. The…

Antiferromagnetic kagome metal FeGe has attracted tremendous attention in condensed matter physics due to the charge density wave (CDW) being well below its magnetic transition temperature. Up to now, numerous works on kagome FeGe have been…

Motivated by recent realizations of Dy$_{2}$Ti$_{2}$O$_{7}$ and Ho$_{2}$Ti$_{2}$O$_{7}$ spin ice thin films, and more generally by the physics of confined gauge fields, we study a model of spin ice thin film with surfaces perpendicular to…

We report the evolution of magnetic moment as well as magnetic anisotropy with crystalline order in Co$_2$MnSi thin films grown on $(100)$ MgO by pulsed laser deposition. The films become more ordered as the annealing temperature ($T_A$)…

Half-metallicity, low magnetic damping and high curie temperature (TC) are crucial for application in spintronics and full Heusler alloys in this regard exhibit remarkable properties. Herein, we have considered Co2FeAl (CFA) and Fe2CoAl…

FeRh based alloys may display an uncommon transition from a ferromagnetic to an antiferromagnetic state upon cooling. The transition takes place roughly above room temperature and it can be sensitively modulated by composition and external…
