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…
Strain-induced suppression of thermochromism in divalent cobalt molybdate thin films
Kiri Van Koughnet, Joey Williamson, Kane Hill +10
Thermochromic oxides provide a platform for coupling lattice, electronic, and magnetic degrees of freedom, with divalent cobalt molybdate as a prototypical example. Despi…
Optical, vibrational, and electronic properties of semiconducting YbN
M. Markwitz, C. Pot, R. G. Buckley +2
We investigate the vibrational, optical, and electronic properties of insulating YbN thin films using Raman spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and electrical tr…
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…
