Heteroepitaxy of Layered III–VI Semiconductor GaSe on Si(111)-7×7 Surface
The new concept of overlayer growth named van der Waals epitaxy (vdWE) emerged with the initial work of Koma [1], in which the constraints imposed by the lattice mismatch have been shown to be removed by using th...

Evidence of Boron-Oxygen Network Modifications in Alkali Borate Glasses
In recent investigations of alkali borate glasses B2O3-Li2O-LiX (X=C1, Br, or I) by light scattering, we find that glasses in the binary and in the ternary system with common O/B ratios do not exhibit identical b...
