The top-down synthesis of inherently ferroelectric semiconductors and their integration with traditional material platforms have the potential to enable new low power logic devices, and to harness the bulk photoelectric effect for more…
By employing a mixed SnO$_2$+Sn source, we demonstrate suboxide molecular beam epitaxy growth of phase-pure single crystalline metastable SnO(001) thin films at a growth rate of ~1.0nm/min without the need for additional oxygen. These films…
In this work, we have demonstrated wide-composition-range \b{eta}-(AlxGa1-x)2O3 thin films with record-high Al compositions up to 77% for \b{eta}-(AlxGa1-x)2O3 covering bandgaps from 4.9 to 6.4 eV. With optimized thermal annealing…
Square net tellurides host an array of electronic ground states and commonly exhibit charge-density-wave ordering. Here we report the epitaxy of DyTe$_{2-\delta}$ on atomically flat MgO (001) using molecular beam epitaxy. The films are…
2H-TaS$_2$ few layers have been grown epitaxially onto GaN(0001). A high substrate growth temperature of 825$^{\circ}$C induces best structural properties of the overlayer, as revealed by in-situ electron diffraction (RHEED and LEED). The…
Topological superconductivity can be engineered in semiconductors with strong spin-orbit interaction coupled to a superconductor. Experimental advances in this field have often been triggered by the development of new hybrid material…
Interfacial interactions often promote the emergence of unusual phenomena in two-dimensional systems, including high-temperature superconductivity. Here, we report the observation of full-gap superconductivity with a maximal spectroscopic…
As-grown superconducting MgB_2 thin films have been grown on SrTiO_3(001), MgO(001), and Al_2O_3(0001) substrates by a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) method with novel co-evaporation conditions of low deposition rate in ultra-high vacuum. The…
Surface atomic-layer (SAL) superconductors consisting of epitaxially grown metal adatoms on a clean semiconductor surface have been recently established. Compared to conventional metal thin films, they have two important features: i)…
$\alpha$-Sn thin films can exhibit a variety of topologically non-trivial phases. Both studying the transitions between these phases and making use of these phases in eventual applications requires good control over the electronic and…

One-dimensional (1D) electronic transport and induced superconductivity in semiconductor nano-structures are crucial ingredients to realize topological superconductivity. Our approach for topological superconductivity employs a…
BCS theory has been widely successful at describing elemental bulk superconductors. Yet, as the length scales of such superconductors approach the atomic limit, dimensionality as well as the environment of the superconductor can lead to…
