$beta-Ga_2O_3$ has drawn significant attention for power electronics and deep ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors owing to its wide bandgap of ~ 4.4 - 4.9 eV and high electric breakdown strength ~7-8 MV/cm. Growth of $beta-Ga_2O_3$ epitaxial thin films with high growth rate has been recently reported using low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) technique. In this work, we have investigated the effect of growth temperature on $beta-Ga_2O_3$ films grown on c-plane sapphire substrates using LPCVD. We performed growths by varying temperatures from 800$^{deg}$C to 950$^{deg}$C while keeping all other growth parameters (Ar/O$_2$ gas flow rates, growth pressure, and Gallium precursor to substrate distance) constant. Optical, structural, and surface characterizations are performed to determine the bandgap, phase purity, crystal orientation, and crystalline quality of the grown thin films. Amorphous islands of $Ga_2O_3$ are observed at growth temperature of 800$^{deg}$C while continuous and crystalline (-201) oriented $beta-Ga_2O_3$ thin films are achieved for growth temperatures of 850$^{deg}$C to 950$^{deg}$C. Crystallinity of the films is found to improve with increase in growth temperature with a minimum rocking full width at half maximum of 1.52$^{deg}$ in sample grown at 925$^{deg}$C. For all the samples grown at and above 875$^{deg}$C, transmittance measurements revealed an optical bandgap of ~4.77-4.80 eV with high growth rate of ~6 ${mu}$m/hr.

Uniform single layer graphene was grown on single-crystal Ir films a few nanometers thick which were prepared by pulsed laser deposition on sapphire wafers. These graphene layers have a single crystallographic orientation and a very low density of de fects, as shown by diffraction, scanning tunnelling microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Their structural quality is as high as that of graphene produced on Ir bulk single crystals, i.e. much higher than on metal thin films used so far.
Chromia (Cr2O3) has been extensively explored for the purpose of developing widespread industrial applications, owing to the convergence of a variety of mechanical, physical and chemical properties in one single oxide material. Various methods have b een used for large area synthesis of Cr2O3 films. However, for selective area growth and growth on thermally sensitive materials, laser-assisted chemical vapour deposition (LCVD) can be applied advantageously. Here we report on the growth of single layers of pure Cr2O3 onto sapphire substrates at room temperature by low pressure photolytic LCVD, using UV laser radiation and Cr(CO)6 as chromium precursor. The feasibility of the LCVD technique to access selective area deposition of chromia thin films is demonstrated. Best results were obtained for a laser fluence of 120 mJ cm-2 and a partial pressure ratio of O2 to Cr(CO)6 of 1.0. Samples grown with these experimental parameters are polycrystalline and their microstructure is characterised by a high density of particles whose size follows a lognormal distribution. Deposition rates of 0.1 nm s-1 and mean particle sizes of 1.85 {mu}m were measured for these films.
A technique has been developed for depositing diamond crystals on the endfaces of optical fibers and capturing the fluorescence generated by optically active defects in the diamond into the fiber. This letter details the diamond growth on optical fib ers and transmission of fluorescence through the fiber from the nitrogen-vacancy (N-V) color center in diamond. Control of the concentration of defects incorporated during the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth process is also demonstrated. These are the first critical steps in developing a fiber coupled single photon source based on optically active defect centers in diamond.
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently attracted attention due to their interesting electronic and optical properties. Fabrication of these materials in a reliable and facile method is important for future applications, as are methods to characterize material quality. Here we present the chemical vapor deposition of MoSe2 monolayer and few layer crystals. These results show the practicality of using chemical vapor deposition to reliably fabricate these materials. Low frequency Raman spectra and mapping of shear and layer breathing modes of MoSe2 are presented for the first time. We correlate the behavior of these modes with layer number in the materials. The usefulness of low frequency Raman mapping to probe the symmetry, quality, and monolayer presence in CVD grown 2D materials is emphasized.
We examine different cases of heterostructures consisting of WS2 monolayers grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) as the optically active material. We show that the degree of valley polarization of WS2 is considerably influenced by the material ty pe used to form the heterostructure. Our results suggest the interaction between WS2 and graphene (WS2/Gr) has a strong effect on the temperature dependent depolarization (i.e. decrease of polarization with increasing temperature), with polarization degrees reaching 24% at room temperature under near-resonant excitation. This contrasts to hBN- encapsulated WS2, which exhibits a room temperature polarization degree of only 11%. The observed low depolarization rate in WS2/Gr heterostructure is attributed to the nearly temperature independent scattering rate due to phonons and fast charge and energy transfer processes from WS2 to graphene. Significant variations in the degree of polarization are also observed at 4K between the different heterostructure configurations. Intervalley hole scattering in the valence band proximity between the K and {Gamma} points of WS2 is sensitive to the immediate environment, leading to the observed variations.
