Thin film synthesis of SrZn2P2 with SrI2 post-annealing for enhanced crystallinity and optoelectronic quality
Sita Dugu, Shaham Quadir, Christopher P. Muzzillo +11
Ternary Zintl phosphides are promising light-absorbing semiconductors for thin-film optoelectronic applications, but strategies for controlling their microstructure and optoelectro…
Long photoexcited carrier lifetime in a stable and earth-abundant zinc polyphosphide
Zhenkun Yuan, Genevieve Amobi, Shaham Quadir +16
Halide perovskites have revolutionized optoelectronics by demonstrating that long carrier lifetime can be achieved in materials processed in relatively uncontrolled environments, w…
Thin-Film Stabilization and Magnetism of η-Carbide Type Iron Nitrides
Baptiste Julien, Abrar Rauf, Liam A. V. Nagle-Cocco +4
Transition-metal nitrides in η-carbide type structures exhibit unusual bonding motifs and proximity to magnetic instabilities. Yet they remain unexplored in thin-film form due to…
Ferrimagnetic Order in Tetragonal Antiperovskite MnGeN
Shaun O'Donnell, Corlyn Regier, Sharad Mahatara +7
The crystal and magnetic structures of the nitride antiperovskite MnGeN reveals ferrimagnetic order stemming from a distorted kagome-derived lattice of the Mn atoms. Polycrysta…
Interplay of Ferromagnetic and Antiferromagnetic Interactions in Epitaxial CoZnN
Sita Dugu, Sharad Mahatara, Corlyn E Regier +4
Antiperovskite nitrides with the general formula MN have attracted significant attention due to their tunable electronic and magnetic properties. Among them are many cobalt-bas…
Structural stability, elemental ordering, and transport properties of layered ScTaN2
Baptiste Julien, Ian A. Leahy, Rebecca W. Smaha +4
Some ternary TM nitrides are predicted to adopt layered structures that make them interesting for thermoelectric conversion and quantum materials applications. Synthesis of TM tern…
