Degenerate epitaxy-driven defects in monolayer silicon oxide onto ruthenium
Shashank Mathur, Sergio Vlaic, Eduardo Machado-Charry +6
The structure of the ultimately-thin crystalline allotrope of silicon oxide, prepared onto a ruthenium surface, is unveiled down to atomic scale with chemical sensitivity, thanks t…
Anatomy and giant enhancement of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of cobalt-graphene heterostructures
Hongxin Yang, Anh Duc Vu, Ali Hallal +5
We report strongly enhanced perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) of Co films by graphene coating from both first-principles and experiments. Our calculations show that graphene…
Unconventional magnetisation texture in graphene / cobalt hybrids
A. D. Vu, J. Coraux, G. Chen +3
Magnetic domain structure and spin-dependent reflectivity measurements on cobalt thin films intercalated at the graphene / Ir(111) interface are investigated using spin-polarised l…
A Closer Look at the Light Induced Changes in the Visco-elastic Properties of Azobenze-Containing Polymers by Statistical Nanoindentation
Luca Sorelli, Filippo Fabbri, Jessy Frech-Baronet +7
The mechanical properties of azobenzene-containing polymer films are statistically measured by instrumented nanoindentation experiment in the dark and under illumination in the abs…
