Formation of titanium monoxide (001) single-crystalline thin film induced by ion bombardment of titanium dioxide (110)
A plethora of technological applications justify why titanium dioxide is probably the most studied oxide, and an optimal exploitation of its properties quite frequently requires a controlled modification of th...

Effects of grain refinement and disorder on the electronic properties of nanocrystalline NiO
Nanocrystalline NiO thin films have been grown on different substrates by RF magnetron sputtering with mixed O2−Ar plasma composition. The oxygen content of the plasma was varied between 0 and 100 %. The films we...
