Substrate-controlled epitaxial-like growth of photochromic yttrium oxyhydride thin films
M. Zubkins, E. Strods, E. Letko +7
Yttrium oxyhydride (YHO) thin films are synthesised by reactive magnetron sputtering of \b{eta}-YHx precursor films onto single-crystalline yttria-stabilised zirconia (YSZ) (111) a…
Hydrogen partial pressure as a key parameter in the reactive sputtering of photochromic YHO thin films
E. Strods, M. Zubkins, E. Letko +3
Oxygen-containing yttrium hydride (YHO) thin films were synthesised by reactive magnetron sputtering over a wide range of hydrogen-to-argon gas flow ratios (H2/Ar) during yttrium h…
Growth and characterization of GaN/Ga2O3 Nanowire Heterostructures for Ultraviolet Optoelectronics
Edgars Butanovs, Eriks Dipans, Martins Zubkins +10
Ultraviolet-range GaN/b-Ga2O3 heterostructures were fabricated and investigated in both planar and nanowire geometries using pulsed laser deposition and reactive magnetron sputteri…
Growth-controlled photochromism in yttrium oxyhydride thin films deposited by HiPIMS and pulsed-DC magnetron sputtering
M. Zubkins, E. Letko, E. Strods +6
The present study investigates photochromic oxygen-containing yttrium hydride (YHO) thin films deposited by reactive high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) and compares t…
Vibrational properties of photochromic yttrium oxyhydride and oxydeuteride thin films
Martins Zubkins, Jevgenijs Gabrusenoks, Rihards Aleksis +6
A comprehensive study of the vibrational properties of photochromic yttrium oxyhydride (YHO) and oxydeuteride (YDO) thin films is presented. These films are deposited using reactiv…
Deposition and photoluminescence of zinc gallium oxide thin films with varied stoichiometry made by reactive magnetron co-sputtering
Martins Zubkins, Edvards Strods, Viktors Vibornijs +6
This paper reports on the deposition and photoluminescence of amorphous and crystalline thin films of zinc gallium oxide with Ga:Zn atomic ratio varied between 0.3 and 5.7. The fil…
Deposition of Ga2O3 thin films by liquid metal target sputtering
Martins Zubkins, Viktors Vibornijs, Edvards Strods +7
This paper reports on the deposition of amorphous and crystalline thin films of Ga2O3 by reactive pulsed direct current magnetron sputtering from a liquid gallium target onto fused…
Tailoring of rhenium oxidation state in ReOx thin films during reactive HiPIMS deposition process and following annealing
M. Zubkins, A. Sarakovskis, E. Strods +5
Bulk rhenium trioxide (ReO3) has an unusually high electrical conductivity and, being nanosized, has promising catalytic properties. However, the production of pure ReO3 thin films…
Optical properties of oxygen-containing yttrium hydride thin films during and after the deposition
M. Zubkins, I. Aulika, E. Strods +7
The synthesis of the photochromic YHO films is based on the oxidation of deposited yttrium hydride in ambient conditions. The actual state of the films during the deposition proces…
