High-energy x-ray diffraction is employed to study the atomic structure of bulk Ge(x)As(2x)Te(100-3x) glasses with compositions in the range 25 ≤ 3x ≤ 70. The coordination environments of Te atoms suggest significant violation of chemical order in these glasses. Analyses of the nearest-neighbor coordination environmen…

We have deposited La2/3Sr1/3MnO3(110) thin films by pulsed laser deposition, changing the ratio of surface diffusivity to deposition flux (D/F) by adjusting substrate temperature and laser repetition rate. We show that persistent two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth, at least up to 30 nm, can be achieved by exploitin…
