Epitaxial oxide ultrathin films and nanostructures
- Abstract:
-
This thesis reports experiments on the epitaxial growth and surface structural characterisation of manganese and niobium oxide ultrathin films and nanocrystals. The earliest stages of growth are investigated involving the stages of nucleation, monolayer film evolution, and the creation of multilayer films and nanostructures. Two distinct substrates are used namely SrTiO3(001) and Au(111). A series of oxide structures are reported that are stabilised through their epitaxial interaction with th...
