We report the structural and optical properties of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown 2-dimensional (2D) material molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) on graphite, CaF2 and epitaxial graphene. Extensive characterizations reveal that 2H- MoSe2 grows by van-der-Waals epitaxy on all 3 substrates with a preferred crystallographic orientation and a Mo:Se ratio of 1:2. Photoluminescence at room temperature (~1.56 eV) is observed in monolayer MoSe2 on both CaF2 and epitaxial graphene. The band edge absorption is very sharp, <60 meV over 3 decades. Overcoming the observed small grains by promoting mobility of Mo atoms would make MBE a powerful technique to achieve high quality 2D materials and heterostructures.

We report the successful growth of high-quality SrO films on highly-ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and single-layer graphene by molecular beam epitaxy. The SrO layers have (001) orientation as confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) while atomic forc e microscopy measurements show continuous pinhole-free films having rms surface roughness of <1.5 {AA}. Transport measurements of exfoliated graphene after SrO deposition show a strong dependence between the Dirac point and Sr oxidation. Subsequently, the SrO is leveraged as a buffer layer for more complex oxide integration via the demonstration of (001) oriented SrTiO3 grown atop a SrO/HOPG stack.
We demonstrate the growth of graphene nanocrystals by molecular beam methods that employ a solid carbon source, and that can be used on a diverse class of large area dielectric substrates. Characterization by Raman and Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure spectroscopies reveal a sp2 hybridized hexagonal carbon lattice in the nanocrystals. Lower growth rates favor the formation of higher quality, larger size multi-layer graphene crystallites on all investigated substrates. The surface morphology is determined by the roughness of the underlying substrate and graphitic monolayer steps are observed by ambient scanning tunneling microscopy.
The growth of single layer graphene nanometer size domains by solid carbon source molecular beam epitaxy on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) flakes is demonstrated. Formation of single-layer graphene is clearly apparent in Raman spectra which display s harp optical phonon bands. Atomic-force microscope images and Raman maps reveal that the graphene grown depends on the surface morphology of the h-BN substrates. The growth is governed by the high mobility of the carbon atoms on the h-BN surface, in a manner that is consistent with van der Waals epitaxy. The successful growth of graphene layers depends on the substrate temperature, but is independent of the incident flux of carbon atoms.
We have investigated a method for substituting oxygen with nitrogen in EuO thin films, which is based on molecular beam epitaxy distillation with NO gas as the oxidizer. By varying the NO gas pressure, we produce crystalline, epitaxial EuO_(1-x)N_x f ilms with good control over the films nitrogen concentration. In-situ x-ray photoemission spectroscopy reveals that nitrogen substitution is connected to the formation Eu3+ 4f6 and a corresponding decrease in the number of Eu2+ 4f7, indicating that nitrogen is being incorporated in its 3- oxidation state. While small amounts of Eu3+ in over-oxidized Eu_(1-delta)O thin films lead to a drastic suppression of the ferromagnetism, the formation of Eu3+ in EuO_(1-x)N_x still allows the ferromagnetic phase to exist with an unaffected Tc, thus providing an ideal model system to study the interplay between the magnetic f7 (J=7/2) and the non-magnetic f6 (J=0) states close to the Fermi level.
An in vacuo thermal desorption process has been accomplished to form epitaxial graphene (EG) on 4H- and 6H-SiC substrates using a commercial chemical vapor deposition reactor. Correlation of growth conditions and the morphology and electrical propert ies of EG are described. Raman spectra of EG on Si-face samples were dominated by monolayer thickness. This approach was used to grow EG on 50 mm SiC wafers that were subsequently fabricated into field effect transistors with fmax of 14 GHz.
