Phase stabilities of Hf-Si-O and Zr-Si-O have been studied with first-principles and thermodynamic modeling. From the obtained thermodynamic descriptions, phase diagrams pertinent to thin film processing were calculated. We found that the…

The nanostructural evolution of the strain-induced structural phase transition in BiFeO3 is examined. Using high-resolution X-ray diffraction and scanning-probe microscopy-based studies we have uniquely identified and examined the numerous…

Thickness is one of the fundamental parameters that define the electronic, optical, and thermal properties of two-dimensional (2D) crystals. Phonons in molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) were recently found to exhibit unique thickness dependence…

Ultraviolet-ozone (UV-O3) treatment is a simple but effective technique for surface cleaning, surface sterilization, doping and oxidation, and is applicable to a wide range of materials. In this study, we investigated how UV-O3 treatment…

We have investigated heteroepitaxial films of Sm-doped BiFeO3 with a Sm-concentration near a morphotropic phase boundary. Our high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction, carried out in a temperature range of 25C to 700C, reveals…

Transition metal nitrides are a fascinating class of hard coating material that provide an excellent platform for investigating superconductivity and fundamental electron phonon interactions. In this work the structural morphological and…

Rutile Germanium Dioxide (GeO2) has been recently theoretically identified as an ultrawide bandgap (UWBG) semiconductor with bandgap 4.68 eV similar to Ga2O3 but having bipolar dopability and ~2x higher electron mobility, Baliga figure of…

Optical phase-matching involves establishing a proper phase relationship between the fundamental and generated waves to enable efficient optical parametric processes. It is typically achieved through either birefringence or periodically…

Structural, interfacial, optical, and transport properties of large-area MoS2 ultra-thin films on BN-buffered silicon substrates fabricated using magnetron sputtering are investigated. A relatively simple growth strategy is demonstrated…

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) is a high-potential material for nanoelectronic applications, especially when thinned to a few layers. Liquid phase exfoliation enables large-scale fabrication of thin films comprising single- and few-layer…

In this work, the results of fabricating ultra thin VO$_2$ films on the technologically relevant amorphous SiO$_2$ surface using reactive DC magnetron sputtering are presented. Results indicate that a post deposition anneal in low partial…

Vanadium oxides are strongly correlated materials which display metal-insulator transitions as well as various structural and magnetic properties that depend heavily on oxygen stoichiometry. Therefore, it is crucial to precisely control…

Vanadium (IV) oxide is one of the most promising materials for thermochromic films due to its unique, reversible crystal phase transition from monoclinic (M1) to rutile (R) at its critical temperature (T$_c$) which corresponds to a change…

Rutile germanium oxide (r-GeO2) has shown potential for ultrawide bandgap semiconductor applications such as power conversion and UV optoelectronics. Homoepitaxial substrates will be key for achieving phase pure and doped r-GeO2 thin films…

A morphotropic phase boundary driven by epitaxial strain has been observed in a lead-free multiferroic BiFeO3 thin films and the strain-driven phase transitions were widely reported to be iso-symmetric Cc-Cc ones by recent works. In this…

We report on the chemical stability of La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 thin films. X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Mn L-edge and O K-edge makes evident deviations from the nominally expected (2/3-1/3) Mn3+/Mn4+ ratio after the growth of thin films on…

A monolayer of ZrO$_{2}$ has recently been grown on the Si(001) surface and shown to have ferroelectric properties, which signifies the realization of the lowest possible thickness in ferroelectric oxides [M. Dogan et al., Nano Lett., 18…

Mn-doped \b{eta}-Ga2O3 (GMO) films with room-temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM) are synthesized by polymer-assisted deposition and the effects of annealing atmosphere (air or pure O2 gas) on their structures and physical properties are…

Cerium-doped manganite thin films were grown epitaxially by pulsed laser deposition at $720 ^\circ$C and oxygen pressure $p_{O_2}=1-25 $Pa and were subjected to different annealing steps. According to x-ray diffraction (XRD) data, the…

BiFeO3 (BFO) multiferroic oxide has a complex phase diagram that can be mapped by appropriately substrate-induced strain in epitaxial films. By using Raman spectroscopy, we conclusively show that films of the so-called supertetragonal T-BFO…
