      The industrial realization of graphene has so far been limited by challenges related to the quality, reproducibility, and high process temperatures required to manufacture graphene on suitable substrates. We demonstrate ...
    • The occupied electronic structure of ultrathin boron doped diamond 

      Pakpour-Tabrizi, Alex; Schenk, Alex Kevin; Holt, Ann Julie; mahatha, s.k.; Arnold, Fabian; Bianchi, Marco; Jackman, Richard; Butler, J.E.; Vikharev, A; Miwa, Jill A.; Hofmann, Philip; Cooil, Simon; Wells, Justin W; Mazzola, Federico (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Using angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, we compare the electronic band structure of an ultrathin (1.8 nm) δ-layer of boron-doped diamond with a bulk-like boron doped diamond film (3 μm). Surprisingly, the measurements ...
