The properties of an Ir (5nm)∕TaN (5nm) stacked layer as a copper diffusion barrier on Si have been investigated. Ir∕TaN bilayer barriers were prepared at room temperature by magnetron sputtering followed by in situ Cu deposition for diffusion tests. Thermal annealing of the barrier stacks was carried out in vacuum at…

We fabricated epitaxial Co-doped BaTiO3 thin films (4–80nm thick) on Nb-doped SrTiO3 substrates. Our results indicate that Co ions exist in the form of Co3+ and that no Co metal clusters appear. All of the Co-doped BaTiO3 thin films show ferromagnetic behavior and the saturated magnetization increases as the film thic…

In the frame of the Hartree--Fock approximation, the dispersion of magnetoplasmons in graphene is derived for all types of transitions for filling factors $\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\leqslant}6$. The optical conductivity components of the magnetoplasmon curves are calculated. It is shown that the electron-electron i…

Cu doped CdS nanophosphors were fabricated through Langmuir-Blodgett route for the first time. Precursors mixed Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of cadmium arachidate-copper arachidate were used to grow doped sulfide nanoparticles within the organic matrix through postdeposition treatment with H(2)S gas. Changes in compo…

Real-time height measurements demonstrate that growth of millimeter-high carbon nanotube (CNT) forests terminates abruptly after first exhibiting a steady decay in growth rate. Termination is accompanied by a distinct loss of alignment among the CNTs, which is quantified by small-angle x-ray scattering. Previously sug…
