Detachment limited interlayer transport processes during SrTiO3 pulsed laser epitaxy

Jeffrey G. Ulbrandt, Xiaozhi Zhang, Randall L. Headrick

Pulsed laser epitaxial growth is characterized by high instantaneous deposition rates that leads to the nucleation of transient islands, both on surface terraces, and on top of sta…

Coherent X-ray Spectroscopy Elucidates Nanoscale Dynamics of Plasma-Enhanced Thin-Film Growth

Peco Myint, Jeffrey M. Woodward, Chenyu Wang +6

Sophisticated thin film growth techniques increasingly rely on the addition of a plasma component to open or widen a processing window, particularly at low temperatures. However, t…

Local step-flow dynamics in thin film growth with desorption

Xiaozhi Zhang, Jeffrey G. Ulbrandt, Peco Myint +6

Desorption of deposited species plays a role in determining the evolution of surface morphology during crystal growth when the desorption time constant is short compared to the tim…

Measurement of Ehrlich-Schwoebel barrier contribution to the self-organized formation of ordered surface patterns on Ge(001)

Peco Myint, Denise Erb, Xiaozhi Zhang +6

Normal incidence 1 keV Ar ion bombardment leads to amorphization and ultrasmoothing of Ge at room temperature, but at elevated temperatures the Ge surface remains crystalline a…

Nanoscale dynamics during self-organized ion beam patterning of Si: II. Kr Bombardment

Peco Myint, Karl F. Ludwig, Lutz Wiegart +4

Despite extensive study, fundamental understanding of self-organized patterning by broad-beam ion bombardment is still incomplete and controversial. Understanding the nanopatternin…

Homoepitaxial growth of SrTiO by Pulsed Laser Deposition: energetic vs thermal growth

Jeffrey G. Ulbrandt, Xiaozhi Zhang, Rui Liu +3

Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) is widely used to grow epitaxial thin films of quantum materials such as complex oxides. Here, we use in-situ X-ray scattering to study homoepitaxy of…
