Dislocation-templated antiferromagnetic domains in epitaxial NiO

Alexandra Fonseca Montenegro, Justin Michel, Fengyuan Yang +1

Controlling antiferromagnetic domains is essential for spintronics, yet deterministic manipulation remains challenging due to their lack of net magnetization. Here, we utilize scan…

Photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy of quantum wire-like dislocation states in ZnS

Alexander Blackston, Alexandra Fonseca Montenegro, Sevim Polat Genlik +2

Recent \textit{ab initio} calculations predict 1D dispersive electronic bands confined to the atomic scale cores of dislocations in the wide bandgap (3.84 eV) semiconductor ZnS. We…

Epitaxially-stabilized growth of wüstite FeO on 4H-SiC

Faisal Kimbugwe, Marzieh Baan, Alexandra Fonseca Montenegro +2

Iron(II) monoxide (FeO) is thermodynamically stable in the halite (wüstite) structure only at elevated temperatures in a typically non-stoichiometric, Fe-deficient, FeO for…

A common origin of photoplastic and electroplastic effects in ZnS

Alexandra Fonseca Montenegro, Sevim Genlik Polat, Md Mohsinur Rahman Adnan +2

Dislocation motion--the atomic-scale mechanism of crystal plasticity--governs the strength and ductility of materials. In functional materials, external stimuli beyond mechanical s…

Log-normal glide and the formation of misfit dislocation networks in heteroepitaxial ZnS on GaP

Alexandra Fonseca Montenegro, Marzieh Baan, Maryam Ghazisaeidi +2

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) based electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) is used to observe and quantify misfit dislocation (MD) networks formed at the heteroepitaxial…
