Compositional dependence of epitaxial Tin+1SiCn MAX-phase thin films grown from a Ti3SiC2 compound target

High-power impulse magnetron sputtering of Ti-Si-C thin films from a Ti3SiC2 compound target

We have deposited Ti-Si-C thin films using high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) from a Ti3SiC2 compound target. The as-deposited films were composite materials with TiC as the main crystalline constituent. X-ray diffraction and photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that they also contained amorphous SiC, and for films deposited on inclined substrates, crystalline Ti5Si3Cx. The film m...

Dependence of Epitaxial Thin Films Properties on Template Thickness

In our previous report, we demonstrated the growth of high-quality epitaxial Co-doped (Ba-122) thin films using single crystalline (STO) templates on (LSAT) substrates with pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Here, we report the dependence of the structural and superconducting properties of Ba-122 thin films on STO templates that were 2-150 unit cell (u.c.) thick. We obtained genuine epitaxial thin ...

Phase-Controlled Electrochemical Activity of Epitaxial Mg-Spinel Thin Films.

We report an approach to control the reversible electrochemical activity (i.e., extraction/insertion) of Mg(2+) in a cathode host through the use of phase-pure epitaxially stabilized thin film structures. The epitaxially stabilized MgMn2O4 (MMO) thin films in the distinct tetragonal and cubic phases are shown to exhibit dramatically different properties (in a nonaqueous electrolyte, Mg(TFSI)2 i...
