The effect of high tensile strain and low dimensionality on the magnetic and electronic properties of CaMnO3 ultrathin films, epitaxially grown on SrTiO3 substrates, are experimentally studied and theoretically analyzed. ...

The technological interest in transparent conductive oxide films (TCOs) has motivated several works in processing techniques, in order to obtain adequate routes to application. In this way, this work describes a new route ...

In this work, the structural, magnetic and energetic properties of ultrathin FeRh films grown in different crystallographic planes, namely (100), (110) and (111), are investigated by using density functional theory ...

In order to study the effect of electron-surface scattering in gold ultrathin films (∼10 nm), we have prepared a set of Au samples on mica on top of a chromium seedlayer (<1 nm). Chromium is added as a metallic surfactant ...
