Van Hove singularities at the -face of the lutetium nitride phonon dispersion
M. Markwitz, K. Kneisel, R. G. Buckley +9
We report the structural and vibrational properties of the prototypical 4-filled nonmagnetic member LuN of the lanthanide nitrides, \textit{Ln}N, with elastic and inelastic neut…
Conductivity of high-mobility epitaxial GdN
Edward X. M. Trewick, B. J. Ruck, W. F. Holmes-Hewett +1
We report electron transport studies of a (001) GdN film grown on the square net presented by the (001) surface of LaAlO3, motivated by recent advances in epitaxial thin-film growt…
Spin polarisation and non-isotropic effective mass in the conduction band of GdN
W. F. Holmes-Hewett, E. X. M. Trewick, H. J. Trodahl +2
GdN is a ferromagnetic semiconductor which has seen increasing interest in the preceding decades particularly in the areas of spin- and superconducting- based electronics. Here we…
Vertical transport and tunnelling in rare-earth nitride heterostructures
Jackson D. Miller, Felicia H. Ullstad, H. Joe Trodahl +2
We report an investigation of the ferromagnetic semiconductor rare earth nitrides (RENs) for their potential for cryogenic-temperature electronics and spintronics application. We h…
