The microscopic spatial kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) method has been employed extensively
in materials modeling. In this review paper, we focus on different traditional and multiscale …

Self-assembly of supported 2D or 3D nanocrystals (NCs) by vacuum deposition and of 3D
NCs by solution-phase synthesis (with possible subsequent transfer to a support) produces …

Atomic-scale control and manipulation of the microstructure of polycrystalline thin films
during kinetically limited low-temperature deposition, crucial for a broad range of industrial …

Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) was employed to get insights on the optical, electronic, and
transport properties of nanocrystalline titanium nitride (TiN x) films with respect to their …

Extensive attention has focused on the structure optimization of perovskites, whereas rare
research has mapped the structure heterogeneity within mixed hybrid perovskite films …

Abstract MULTIMOORA (Multi-Objective Optimization on the basis of Ratio Analysis plus full
multiplicative form) is a somewhat new multi criteria decision-making (MCDM) method which …

Publisher Summary Atomic scale understanding of microstructural evolution, necessary for
the controlled manipulation of the properties of thin film systems, is increasing rapidly. The …

Texture control of sputter-deposited nitride films has provoked a great deal of interest due to
its technological importance. Despite extensive research, however, the reported results are …

The present review provides an overview of the basic theory of sputtering with recent
models, focusing in particular on sputtered atom energy distribution functions. Molecular …

Alumina thin film is typically studied as a model atomic layer deposition (ALD) process due
to its high dielectric constant, high thermal stability, and good adhesion on various wafer …
