A direct patterning technique of gallium-irradiated superconducting silicon has been established by focused gallium-ion beam without any mask-based lithography process. The electrical transport measurements for line and square shaped…
We report experiments on surface nanopatterning of Si targets which are irradiated with 2 keV Ar + ions impinging at near-glancing incidence, under concurrent co-deposition of Au impurities simultaneously extracted from a gold target by the…
A model of the interstitial diffusion of ion-implanted boron during rapid thermal annealing of silicon layers previously amorphized by implantation of germanium has been proposed. It is supposed that the boron interstitials are generated…
Binary collision simulations of high-fluence 1 keV Si ion implantation into 8 nm thick SiO2 films on (001)Si were combined with kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of Si nanocrystal (NC) formation by phase separation during annealing. For…
We characterize composition and structure of ultrathin nickel silicide during formation from 3 nm Ni films on Si(100) using in-situ high resolution ion scattering and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. We show the transition…
The formation and growth of refractory matter on pre-existing interstellar dust grain surfaces was studied experimentally by annealing neon-ice matrices in which potential precursors of silicate grains (Mg and Fe atoms, SiO and SiO$_2$…
For future nanoelectronic devices - such as room-temperature single electron transistors - the site-controlled formation of single Si nanocrystals (NCs) is a crucial prerequisite. Here, we report an approach to fabricate single Si NCs via…
Based on the parameters from published ab-inito theoretical and experimental studies, and combining Molecular Dynamics (MD) and kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations, a framework of multi-scale modeling is developed to investigate the…
Hyperdoped metastable sulfur atoms endow crystalline silicon with a strong sub-bandgap light absorption. In order to explore such metastable states, we develop a new high-throughput first-principles calculation method to search for all of…
It is investigated the formation of the phase composition and structure in the nanoscaled CoSbx (30 nm) films deposited by the method of molecular-beam epitaxy on the substrates of the oxidated monocrystalline silicon at 200 C and following…
Raman studies of nanocomposite SiCN thin film by sputtering showed that with an increase of substrate temperature from room temperature to 500oC, a transition from mostly sp2 graphitic phase to sp3 carbon took place which was observed from…
Nickel monosilicide (NiSi) has emerged as an excellent material of choice for source-drain contact applications below 45 nm node complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. We have investigated the formation of nanoscale NiSi…
During the formation of Si nanocrystals (Si NC) in Si$_x$C$_{1-x}$ layers via solid-phase crystallization, the unintended formation of nanocrystalline SiC reduces the minority carrier lifetime and therefore the performance of…
Diffusion mediated interaction in metal-substrate assembly during high temperature annealing leads to possible formation of new composite materials. Here, sputtered grown Ti films on Si3N4/Si substrate has been reported to produce titanium…
Silicon carbide (SiC) is an important technological material, but its high-temperature phase diagram has remained unclear due to conflicting experimental results about congruent versus incongruent melting. Here, we employ large-scale…
Superconducting boron-doped silicon films prepared by gas immersion laser doping (GILD) technique are analyzed by atom probe tomography. The resulting three-dimensional chemical composition reveals that boron atoms are incorporated into…
Due to its exceptional lithium storage capacity silicon is considered as a promising candidate for anode material in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In the present work we demonstrate that methods of the soft X-ray emission spectroscopy…
Iron silicon oxide nanowire has been synthesized by putting single crystalline Si(100) wafer into ammonium iron sulfate, hydrogen peroxide, and triethylamine solution heated to from 70 to 100 degree in the air. The prepared iron silicon…
In the past decade, lithium niobate (LiNbO3 or LN) photonics, thanks to its heat-free and fast electro-optical modulation, second-order non-linearities and low loss, has been extensively investigated. Despite numerous demonstrations of…
Future laser-interferometric gravitational wave detectors (GWDs) will potentially employ test mass mirrors from crystalline silicon and a laser wavelength of $1550\,\rm{nm}$, which corresponds to a photon energy below the silicon bandgap.…
