When the rare earth mononitrides (RENs) first burst onto the scientific scene in the middle of
last century, there were feverish dreams that their strong magnetic moment would afford a …

Josephson junctions with ferromagnetic barriers have been intensively investigated in
recent years. Of particular interest has been the realization of so called π-junctions with a …

We present recent advances in numerical implementations of hybrid functionals and the GW
approximation within the full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (FLAPW) method …

In this study, we use Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) and DFT method in order to deduce the
critical magnetic behavior of the rare earth-based alloy GdN. The Monte Carlo method is …

We studied the optical and magnetic properties in epitaxial AlN/GdN/AlN double
heterostructures grown using reactive sputtering under ultrapure conditions. The indirect …

We report on the epitaxial growth of the intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductor GdN on Si
(111) substrates buffered by a thick AlN layer, forming a heteroepitaxial system with promise …

The study of superconductor-ferromagnet interfaces has generated great interest in the last
decades, leading to the observation of spin-aligned triplet supercurrents and 0–π transitions …

Polycrystalline GdN thin films have been grown at room temperature with varying N 2
pressure. By varying the nitrogen pressure during growth we alter the carrier concentrations …

We report an interplay between magnetism and charge transport in the ferromagnetic
semiconductor GdN, pointing to the formation of magnetic polarons centered on nitrogen …

We report a comprehensive study of the synthesis of epitaxial SmN thin films on LaAlO 3
(100) by molecular beam epitaxy under slow-growth conditions. By carefully tuning the …
