Tunable polar distortions and magnetism in GdLaPtSb epitaxial films

Dongxue Du, Cheyu Zhang, Jingrui Wei +5

Hexagonal intermetallics are predicted to have tunable ferroelectric, topological, and magnetic properties as a function of the polar buckling of atomic planes. We repor…

Room-temperature ferromagnetism in epitaxial bilayer FeSb/SrTiO3(001) terminated with a Kagome lattice

Huimin Zhang, Qinxi Liu, Liangzi Deng +10

Two-dimensional (2D) magnets exhibit unique physical properties for potential applications in spintronics. To date, most 2D ferromagnets are obtained by mechanical exfoliation of b…

Effect of Pt vacancies on magnetotransport of Weyl semimetal candidate GdPtSb epitaxial films

Dongxue Du, Laxman Raju Thoutam, Konrad T. Genser +5

We examine the effects of Pt vacancies on the magnetotransport properties of Weyl semimetal candidate GdPtSb films, grown by molecular beam epitaxy on c-plane sapphire. Rutherford…

Structure and magnetism in Fe-doped FeVSb and epitaxial Fe/FeVSb nanocomposite films

Estiaque Shourov, Chenyu Zhang, Paul Voyles +1

The combination of ferromagnetism and semiconducting behavior offers an avenue for realizing novel spintronics and spin-enhanced thermoelectrics. Here we demonstrate the synthesis…

Epitaxy, exfoliation, and strain-induced magnetism in rippled Heusler membranes

Dongxue Du, Sebastian Manzo, Chenyu Zhang +6

Single-crystalline membranes of functional materials enable the tuning of properties via extreme strain states; however, conventional routes for producing membranes require the use…

Semi-adsorption-controlled growth window for half Heusler FeVSb epitaxial films

Estiaque H. Shourov, Ryan Jacobs, Wyatt A. Behn +8

The electronic, magnetic, thermoelectric, and topological properties of Heusler compounds (composition or ) are highly sensitive to stoichiometry and defects. Here we…

Control of polymorphism during epitaxial growth of hyperferroelectric candidate LiZnSb on GaSb (111)B

Dongxue Du, Patrick J. Strohbeen, Hanjong Paik +6

A major challenge for ferroelectric devices is the depolarization field, which competes with and often destroys long-range polar order in the limit of ultrathin films. Recent theor…

High electrical conductivity in the epitaxial polar metals LaAuGe and LaPtSb

Dongxue Du, Amber Lim, Chenyu Zhang +7

Polar metals are an intriguing class of materials that simultaneously host free carriers and polar structural distortions. Despite the name "polar metal," however, most well-studie…

Electronically enhanced layer buckling and Au-Au dimerization in epitaxial LaAuSb films

Patrick J. Strohbeen, Dongxue Du, Chenyu Zhang +5

We report the molecular beam epitaxial growth, structure, and electronic measurements of single-crystalline LaAuSb films on AlO (0001) substrates. LaAuSb belongs to a broad…
