Equipment

State-of-the-art and beyond-state-of-art thin film systems: a dedicated and world-wide unique system for ADvanced Oxide Molecular Beam Epitaxy (ADOMBE), a standard oxide MBE, several Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD), RF-magnetron sputter chambers and Ion Beam Etching (IBE).

The characterization methods include dedicated thin film diffractometry, Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID), magnetoconductivity between 300 mK and 400 K in up to 17 T, and high-resolution electron microscopy.
