Optical properties of Au-Hf thin films
Hugh Littlehailes, William R. Hendren, Robert M. Bowman +1
The optical properties of thin films of intermetallic AuHf were experimentally investigated for the first time, which display clear plasmonic properties in the optical and ne…
Searching for refractory plasmonic materials: the structural and optical properties of AuZr intermetallic thin films
Hugh Littlehailes, William R. Hendren, Stacey Drakeley +2
Optical properties of refractory intermetallic thin films of AuZr were experimentally investigated for the first time, which show distinctive plasmonic properties in the visi…
Hunting micrometer-sized graphene flakes on gold substrate
Joel M. Katzen, Matěj Velický, Yuefeng Huang +7
Gold is widely used as the substrate material in many graphene devices, due to its superior optoelectronic properties and chemical stability. However, there has been little experim…
Improved magnetization in sputtered dysprosium thin films
G. Scheunert, W. R. Hendren, A. A. Lapicki +3
50nm thick nanogranular polycrystalline dysprosium thin films have been prepared via ultra-high vacuum DC sputtering on SiO2 and Si wafers. The maximum in-plane spontaneous magneti…
Realizing a High Magnetic Moment in Gd/Cr/FeCo: The Role of the Rare Earth
C. Ward, G. Scheunert, W. R. Hendren +3
The search for materials or systems exhibiting a high magnetic saturation has been of longstanding importance. It has been suggested that increased saturation could be achieved by…
Magnetization of 2.6T in gadolinium thin films
G. Scheunert, W. R. Hendren, C. Ward +1
There is renewed interest in rare-earth elements and gadolinium in particular for a range of studies in coupling physics and applications. However, it is still apparent that synthe…
