Materials by X-ray Absorption Fine
Structure and X-ray Diffraction
X-ray absorption fine structure is combined with x-ray diffraction to study the local atomic structure of strain engineered thin-film electronic materials. Examples will include the local atomic structure of strained-layer semiconductor alloys and ferroelectric SrTiO3 layers on Si. Detailed comparisons will be made with theory.
