Thin films of MOFs grown on solid substrates offer a huge potential with regard to tailoring the properties of a surface, in particular if used in connection with post-synthesis modification (PSM). Here, we report on the PSM of surface-supported crystalline MOFs, with target molecules using an amine-based coupling strategy.

Vanadium dioxide ([Formula: see text]) is a favorable material platform of modern optoelectronics, since it manifests the reversible temperature-induced insulator-metal transition (IMT) with an abrupt and rapid changes in the conductivity and optical properties. It makes possible applications of such a phase-change material in the ultra-fast optoelectronics and terahertz (THz) technology. Despite the considerable interest to this material, data on its broadband electrodynamic response in different states are still missing in the literature.

Low Temperature Atomic Layer Deposition of (00l)-Oriented Elemental Bismuth.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

Leibniz-Institut fur Festkorper- und Werkstoffforschung Dresden eV, Helmholtzstraße 20, 01069, Dresden, GERMANY.

This study presents the first successful demonstration of growing elemental bismuth (Bi) thin films via thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) using Bi(NMe2)3 as the precursor and Sb(SiMe3)3 as the co-reactant. The films were deposited at a relatively low temperature of 100 °C, with a growth per cycle (GPC) of 0.31-0.

HfO-based ferroelectric (FE) thin films have gained considerable interest for memory applications due to their excellent properties. However, HfO₂-based FE films face significant reliability challenges, especially the wake-up and fatigue effects, which hinder their practical application. In this work, we fabricated 13.

The development of chiral organic materials with strong non-reciprocal chiroptical features may have major implications for cutting-edge technological applications. In this work, a new synthesized chiral 1,4-diketo-3,6-dithienylpyrrolo[3,4-]pyrrole dye, bearing two ()-3,7-dimethyl-1-octyl alkyl chains on the lactam moieties and functionalized with two lateral 9-anthracenyl π-conjugated units, exhibited strong non-reciprocal chiroptical properties in thin films, with some important differences between samples prepared by drop casting and spin coating. A detailed study was performed to unravel the intimate structure-property relationship, involving computational analysis, different microscopy techniques and synchrotron radiation Mueller matrix polarimetry imaging (SR-MMP) investigation.

: active learning in neutron reflectometry for fast data acquisition.

J Appl Crystallogr

January 2024

NIST Center for Neutron Research, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA.

Neutron reflectometry (NR) is a powerful technique for interrogating the structure of thin films at interfaces. Because NR measurements are slow and instrument availability is limited, measurement efficiency is paramount. One approach to improving measurement efficiency is active learning (AL), in which the next measurement configurations are selected on the basis of information gained from the partial data collected so far.
