The stacked single-unit cell Ba1-xSrxTiO3 (BSTO) thin film designed by the high-throughput method is fabricated by layer-by-layer deposition by laser molecular beam epitaxy, and its ferroelectric and dielectric characteristics as a function of Sr concentration are comprehensively investigated. The permittivity of BSTO exhibits a monotonous increase by Sr with a plateau in the region of 14% < Sr < 85%. Meanwhile, at the low Sr doping regime, the piezoelectric response has been discovered, and the maximum piezoresponse and d33 can reach approximately 139.05 pm and 88 pm/V once an appropriate Ba/Sr ratio is formed, exhibiting a coexistence of a dielectric property and giant piezoresponse. This effective piezoelectric constant d33 value is significantly larger than the conventional chemical doping scenarios, suggesting that the intra-plane interaction is crucial for designing future promising dielectric and ferroelectric thin films via high-throughput technologies.

The high quality thin films of high-Tc superconducting oxide are necessary for elucidating the superconducting mechanism and for device application. The recent trend in the preparation of high-Tc films has been toward “in-situ” growth of the superconducting phase at relatively low temperatures. The purpose of “in-situ” growth is to attain surface smoothness suitable for fabricating film devices but also to obtain high quality film. We present the investigation on the initial growth manner of YBCO by in-situ reflective high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) technique and on the structural and superconducting properties of the resulting ultrathin films below 100Å. The epitaxial films have been grown on (100) plane of MgO and SrTiO, heated below 650°C by activated reactive evaporation. The in-situ RHEED observation and the intensity measurement was carried out during deposition of YBCO on the substrate at 650°C. The deposition rate was 0.8Å/s. Fig. 1 shows the RHEED patterns at every stage of deposition of YBCO on MgO(100). All the patterns exhibit the sharp streaks, indicating that the film surface is atomically smooth and the growth manner is layer-by-layer.

Carbon nanofiber nonwovens are promising materials for electrode or filtration applications; however, their utilization is obviated by a lack of high throughput production methods. In this study, we utilize a highly effective high-throughput method for the fabrication of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers as a nonwoven on a dedicated substrate. The method employs rotational-, air pressure- and electrostatic forces to produce fibers from the inner edge of a rotating bell towards a flat collector. We investigate the impact of all above-mentioned forces on the fiber diameter, morphology, and bundling of the carbon-precursor PAN fibers. The interplay of radial forces with collector-facing forces has an influence on the uniformity of fiber deposition. Finally, the obtained PAN nanofibers are converted to carbon nonwovens by thermal treatment.
