Thin Film Deposition for Materials Discovery

Submission Deadline: September 14, 2022

Historically, thin film growth has occurred after the initial stages of material discovery, allowing promising materials to be made in both higher quality and a more usable form. While this approach has borne fruit in a variety of material systems, recent advances in materials growth science and technology have permitted an increased focus on materials discovery during thin film growth. This has accompanied an increased ability to predict properties of materials computationally, thereby narrowing the design space. This collection focuses on this emerging field of thin film deposition for materials discovery and some of the techniques and materials that have been enabled.

Topics covered include but are not limited to:

  • Combinatorial synthesis
  • Epitaxial stabilization
  • Topotactic transformations
  • Phase transitions (ferroelectric, martensitic, etc.)
  • Interfaces
  • Superlattices, synthetic materials
  • Nickelate superconductivity
  • van der Waals epitaxy
  • Remote epitaxy
  • Graphoepitaxy
  • Computational materials synthesis
