Selective growth of epitaxial Sr2IrO4 by controlling plume dimensions in pulsed laser deposition
S. S. A. Seo, J. Nichols, J. Hwang +6
We report that epitaxial Sr2IrO4 thin-films can be selectively grown using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Due to the competition between the Ruddlesden-Popper phases of strontium i…
Enhanced metallic properties of SrRuO3 thin films via kinetically controlled pulsed laser epitaxy
J. Thompson, J. Nichols, S. Lee +10
Metal electrodes are a universal element of all electronic devices. Conducting SrRuO3 (SRO) epitaxial thin films have been extensively used as electrodes in complex-oxide heterostr…
Conducting LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterointerfaces on atomically flat substrates prepared by deionized-water
J. G. Connell, J. Nichols, J. H. Gruenewald +2
We have investigated how the recently-developed water-leaching method for atomically-flat SrTiO3 (STO) substrates affects the transport properties of LaAlO3 (LAO) and STO heteroint…
Alleviating polarity-conflict at the heterointerfaces of KTaO/GdScO polar complex-oxides
J. Thompson, J. Hwang, J. Nichols +3
We have synthesized and investigated the heterointerfaces of KTaO (KTO) and GdScO (GSO), which are both polar complex-oxides along the pseudo-cubic [001] direction. Since t…
Pulsed laser deposition with simultaneous in situ real-time monitoring of optical spectroscopic ellipsometry and reflection high-energy electron diffraction
J. H. Gruenewald, J. Nichols, S. S. A. Seo
We present a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) system that can monitor growth by simultaneously using in situ optical spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) and reflection high-energy electro…
