Impact of temperature and film thickness on ?- and ?- phase formation in Ga2O3 thin films grown on a-plane sapphire substrate - The metastable corundum gallium oxide (?-Ga2O3) features advantageous properties in comparison to the thermodynamically stable monoclinic ?-Ga2O3 phase, such as wider bandgap, which is beneficial for a range of applications. However, stabilization of phase-pure ?-Ga2O3 thin films is still challenging with conventional deposition methods due to limited understanding of g |

Synthesis and Investigation of ReSe2 Thin Films Obtained from Magnetron Sputtered Re and ReOx - The promise of two-dimensional (2D) rhenium diselenide (ReSe2) in electronics and optoelectronics has sparked considerable interest in this material. However, achieving the growth of high-quality ReSe2 thin films on a wafer scale remains a significant challenge. In this study, we adopted a two-step method to produce ReSe2 thin films by combining magnetron sputtering of Re and ReOx onto flat substrates |

Towards Scalable Synthesis of TiSe2 and VSe2 Thin Films - Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), specifically those involving V and Ti, possess fascinating material properties, making them interesting candidates for scientific studies. The existing growth methods of these materials are typically limited by scalability – either low yield or high cost. Here, we propose an alternative 2-step method valid for scalable production. In the first step, precursor films of Ti / V are deposited using mag |

Synthesis of ZnS/Al2O3/TaSe2 Core/Shell Nanowires Using Thin Ta Metal Film Precursor - This study introduces a novel approach for fabricating ZnS/Al2O3/TaSe2 heterostructured core/shell nanowires (NWs) through the selenization of a metallic Ta thin film precursor. The synthesis process involves a meticulously designed four-step protocol: (1) generating ZnS NWs on an oxidized silicon substrate, (2) encapsulating these NWs with a precisely controlled thin Al2O3 layer via atomic layer deposition (A |

Glyphosate Sensor Based on Nanostructured Water-Gated CuO Field-Effect Transistor - This research presents a comparative analysis of water-gated thin film transistors based on a copper oxide (CuO) semiconductor in the form of a smooth film and a nanostructured surface. A smooth CuO film was deposited through reactive magnetron sputtering followed by annealing in atmosphere at a temperature of 280 C. Copper oxide nanostructures were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis on a preliminary magnetron sp |

Comparative study of WSe2 thin films synthesized via pre-deposited WO3 and W precursor material selenization - Layered two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as p-type WSe2, are potential key materials in the manufacture of the next generation electronic devices. One of the remaining main challenges is the large area growth of high-quality films. A potential large-scale 2D WSe2 synthesis method is conversion (selenization) of a pre-deposited sacrificial precursor coating. However, its use is still |

Different strategies for GaN-MoS2 and GaN-WS2 core–shell nanowire growth - One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures – nanowires (NWs) – exhibit attractive properties for integration in different types of functional devices. Their properties can be enhanced even further or tuned for a specific application by combining different promising materials, such as layered van der Waals materials and conventional semiconductors, into 1D-1D core–shell heterostructures.
