Thin films based on limited solid solutions of cadmium and zinc sulfides have been synthesized by a one-stage epitaxial layer-by-layer deposition from an ammonium-containing aqueous solution of cadmium and zinc chlorides and thiocarbamide on a glass substrate. The thickness control of sulfide layers was carried out by selection of reagent concentrations and the deposition conditions. The relationship between the synthesis conditions of CdxZn[Formula: see text]S thin films and the size of sulfide nanoparticles in these films is established. The films contain two phases: hexagonal (space group [Formula: see text]) phase with [Formula: see text] structure of wurtzite type and cubic (space group [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]) phase with [Formula: see text] structure of sphalerite type. It is shown that the CdxZn[Formula: see text]S film consists of separate [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]nm agglomerates which are a collection of smaller nanometer-sized particles. The dependence of the band gap of the synthesized films on their thickness is found.

We have determined the structures of two phases of unsolvated Mg(BH4)2, a material of interest for hydrogen storage. One or both phases can be obtained depending on the synthesis conditions. The first, a hexagonal phase with space group P61, is stable below 453 K. Upon heating above that temperature it transforms to an orthorhombic phase, with space group Fddd, stable to 613 K at which point it decomposes with hydrogen release. Both phases consist of complex networks of corner-sharing tetrahedra consisting of a central Mg atom and four BH4 units. The high-temperature orthorhombic phase has a strong antisite disorder in the a lattice direction, which can be understood on the basis of atomic structure.

ABSTRACTUsing in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), we studied the growth of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BSCCO) thin films prepared by reactive evaporation using layer-by-layer deposition. Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox(2212) tends to be grown three-dimensionally if it is grown directly on (100) SrTiO3, in contrast to Bi2Sr2CuOx(2201) which is easily grown two-dimensionally on SrTiO3. Two-dimensional 2212 growth can be realized, if a buffer layer of 2201 is deposited on (100) SrTiO3 and growth interruption is utilized after SrO layer deposition. A buffer layer of only two 2201 unit cells improved the surface crystallinity of the substrate for the epitaxial growth of 2212. Growth interruption for two minutes after the 2nd SrO layer in the half unit cell is necessary to keep two-dimensional layered growth. The resulting Tc (zero) is 76 K and Jc (at 4.2 K) is 1.5 × 106 (A/cm2) with these epitaxial films.

AbstractBy using 1ayer-by-1ayer successive deposition method with excimer laser ablation, the distance between CuO2 planes in the Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Oy superconductor has been controlled and super lattices with concentration modulation of Y and Ca have been formed. From the properties of these ‘Tailored films’, it is suggested that there is an interaction between CuO2 layers across Ca layer to affect the Tc value, but there is a very weak interaction across Bi2O2 blocking layers.

Here we present novel layer-by-layer deposition processes for the fabrication of inorganic–organic hybrid thin films of the (–Fe–O–C6H4–O–)n type and also superlattices where N thicker iron oxide layer blocks alternate with monomolecular-thin organic layers.
