Cubic-phase zirconia nano-island growth using atomic layer deposition and application in low-power charge-trapping nonvolatile-memory devices
(Institute of Physics Publishing Ltd., 2017)The manipulation of matter at the nanoscale enables the generation of properties in a material that would otherwise be challenging or impossible to realize in the bulk state. Here, we demonstrate growth of zirconia ... -
Direct evidence for the instability and deactivation of mixed-oxide systems: influence of surface segregation and subsurface diffusion
(2011)In the current contribution, we provide a direct demonstration of the thermally induced surface structural transformations of an alkaline-earth oxide/transition metal oxide interface that is detrimental to the essential ... -
Effect of disorder on the interacting fermi gases in a one-dimensional optical lattice
(World Scientific Publishing Co., 2008)Interacting two-component Fermi gases loaded in a one-dimensional (1D) lattice and subjected to a harmonic trapping potential exhibit interesting compound phases in which fluid regions coexist with local Mott-insulator ... -
