The film grows in units of bilayers up to four atomic layers and shows a quasi–layer-by-layer growth above four layers in which ev… [Phys. Rev. Materials 7, 033404...

Author(s): Claudia Kofahl, Lars Dörrer, Brendan Muscutt, Simone Sanna, Stepan Hurskyy, Uliana Yakhnevych, Yuriy Suhak, Holger Fritze, Steffen Ganschow, and Harald Schmidt Lithium niobate and lithium tantalate crystals are technologically important metal oxides with exceptional combinations of ferroelectric, piezoelectric, acoustic, optical, and electrical properties. The self-diffusion of both, the ionic constituents and the underlying point defects...

Author(s): Ryan Van Haren, Toyanath Joshi, and David Lederman A spontaneous ferromagnetic moment can be induced in ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Te}}_{3}$ thin films below a temperature $T≈16$ K by the introduction of Mn dopants. We demonstrate that films grown via molecular beam epitaxy with the stoichiometry ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{0.14}{\mathrm{Bi}}_{1.86}{\mathrm{Te}… [Phys. Rev. Materials 7, 034201] Published Thu Mar 23, 2023

Author(s): Einar B. Thorsteinsson, Arni S. Ingason, and Fridrik Magnus ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{2}\mathrm{GaC}$ is a MAX phase belonging to a family of naturally nanolaminated materials with formula ${M}_{n+1}A{X}_{n}$ ($n=1,2,3$), where $M$ is a transition metal, $A$ is an A-group element, and $X$ is carbon or nitrogen. It has a complex magnetic phase diagram, and there are ma… [Phys. Rev. Materials 7, 034409] Published Thu Mar 23, 2023

Author(s): Buddhadeb Debnath, Anirban Das, Priyo Adhikary, and Shantanu Mukherjee Bilayer Strontium Ruthenate ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{3}{\mathrm{Ru}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}$ is a strongly correlated electronic system that shows diverse electronic and structural phases. Upon doping with Mn, an orbital selective Mott phase is observed before the material transitions to a Mott insulating state… [Phys. Rev. Materials 7, 035001] Published Wed Mar 22, 2023

Author(s): Gastón A. González, Ruben A. Fritz, Yamil J. Colón, and Felipe Herrera Porous materials are widely used for applications in gas storage and separation. The diffusive properties of a variety of gases in porous media can be modeled using molecular dynamics simulations that can be computationally demanding depending on the pore geometry, complexity, and amount of gas adso… [Phys.

Aswartham We report optimized crystal growth conditions for the quaternary compound ${\mathrm{CuCrP}}_{2}{\mathrm{S}}_{6}$ by chemical vapor transport. Compositional and structural characterization of the obtained crystals were carried out by means of energy-dispersive...
