Microscopic Origin of Structural Disorder in -NbN: Correlation of Superconductivity and Electronic Structure
Shailesh Kalal, Sanjay Nayak, Akhil Tayal +3
Rock-salt type niobium nitride (-NbN) is a well-known superconductor having superconducting transition temperature (Tc) 18\,K and a large superconducting gap …
Structural, Electronic, and Magnetic Properties of HiPIMS Grown Co-N Thin Films
Seema, Akhil Tayal, S. M. Amir +3
We studied the growth behavior, structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of cobalt nitride (Co-N) thin films deposited using direct current (dc) and high power impulse magne…
Phase formation, thermal stability and magnetic moment of cobalt nitride thin films
Rachana Gupta, Nidhi Pandey, Akhil Tayal +1
Cobalt nitride (Co-N) thin films prepared using a reactive magnetron sputtering process by varying the relative nitrogen gas flow (\pn) are studied in this work. As \pn~increases,…
Effect of Al doping on phase formation and thermal stability of iron nitride thin films
Akhil Tayal, Mukul Gupta, Nidhi Pandey +3
In the present work, we systematically studied the effect of Al doping on the phase formation of iron nitride (Fe-N) thin films. Fe-N thin films with different concentration of Al…
