The optical characteristics of a planar thin film waveguide system composed of air-graphene-LiNbOhave been investigated. Monolayer or bilayer graphene of high quality are characterized by Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The refractivity and reflectivity of the air-graphene-LiNbOsystem are measured experimentally and compared with those of a LiNbOwaveguide by the prism coupling method. The reflectivity shows an overall decrease due to the lower transmittance for graphene on the LiNbOsubstrate. The refractivity increases significantly at the wavelength of 1540 nm, which may be attributed to the generation of graphene surface plasmons excited by infrared radiation. A shaped air-graphene-LiNbOwaveguide is designed and simulated by Mode Solutions. The distribution of an optical field is performed and analyzed. The preparation of the proposed air-graphene-LiNbOstructure incorporates the commonly used chemical vapor deposition and thin film transfer techniques, and is compatible with existing optoelectronic integration processes, which can be employed for building various optical integrated devices.

Understanding the resistive switching (RS) behavior of oxide-based memory devices at nanoscale is crucial for advancement of high-integration density in-memory computing platforms. This study explores a comprehensive growth parameter space to address the RS behavior of pulsed-laser-deposited substoichiometric TiO (TiO) thin films in search of tailored nanoscale memristors with low-power consumption and high stability. Conductive-atomic-force-microscopy-based measurements facilitate deciphering the switching behavior at nanoscale, providing a direct avenue to understand the microstructure-property relationships.

For potential application in advanced memory devices such as dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) or NAND flash, nanolaminated indium oxide (In-O) and gallium oxide (Ga-O) films with five different vertical cation distributions were grown and investigated by using a plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process. Specifically, this study provides an in-depth examination of how the control of individual layer thicknesses in the nanolaminated (NL) IGO structure impacts not only the physical and chemical properties of the thin film but also the overall device performance. To eliminate the influence of the cation composition ratio and overall thickness on the IGO thin film, these parameters were held constant across all conditions.

Thermal transport in nanostructures plays a critical role in modern technologies. As devices shrink, techniques that can measure thermal properties at nanometer and nanosecond scales are increasingly needed to capture transient, out-of-equilibrium phenomena. We present a novel pump-probe photon-electron method within a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) to map temperature dynamics with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolutions.

Optical resonances play a crucial role in further enhancing the nonlinear optical responses of LiNbO metasurfaces (LNMS). In this study, both numerically and experimentally, we designed and fabricated a metasurface structure that supports toroidal dipole (TD) resonance to enhance second-harmonic generation (SHG).
