Amorphous-to-crystalline transition-induced two-step thin film growth of quasi-one-dimensional penta-telluride ZrTe<inf>5</inf>

　概要を見る

Quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) van der Waals (vdWs) materials, such as ZrTe5, exhibit unique electrical properties and quantum phenomena, making them attractive for advanced electronic applications. However, large-scale growth of ZrTe5 thin films presents challenges. We address this by employing sputtering, a common semiconductor industry technique. The as-deposited ZrTe5 film is amorphous, and post-annealing induces a crystallization process akin to transition-metal dichalcogenides. Our study investigates the electrical and optical properties during this amorphous-to-crystalline transition, revealing insights into the underlying mechanism. This work contributes to the fundamental understanding of quasi-1D materials and introduces a scalable fabrication method for ZrTe5 which offers the possibility of fabricating unique future electronic and optical devices.

　概要を見る

The successful prevention of interfacial reactions between ferromagnetic materials and topological insulators (TIs) is crucial for the realization of reliable spintronic devices using TIs. To this end, we investigated the magnetic properties and interfacial reaction behavior of a bilayer structure composed of ferromagnetic CoFeB and TI Sb2Te3. The effects of including a MgO interlayer was also investigated. Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) studies showed a remarkably weak resonance peak for the sample annealed at 400 °C for the 2-nm-thick interlayer, and finally, no resonance peak for a film below 1 nm in thickness was observed. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results demonstrated that the Sb2Te3 peak intensities started to decrease upon annealing at 200 °C and completely disappeared for annealing temperatures >400 °C. Hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) results also support that the core-level peaks of Sb and Te split upon annealing at temperatures >200 °C, suggesting the dissociation of Sb2Te3. These results indicate that Sb2Te3 and CoFeB react at the interface during annealing, resulting in a loss of the ferromagnetic properties of the CoFeB layer. Meanwhile, a sample containing a 3-nm-thick MgO layer retained its original Sb2Te3/MgO/CoFeB structure even after annealing at 400 °C, as evidenced by its unchanged XRD peak intensity and FMR spectrum. We expect that our findings will be highly valuable in developing TI-based spintronic devices.

Spin-dependent bandgap renormalization and state-filling effect in Bi2Se3 observed by ultrafast Kerr rotation

　概要を見る

We investigate the ultrafast spin dynamics of the prototypical topological insulator Bi2Se3 using time-resolved Kerr rotation (polarization-change) measurements across near-infrared wavelengths. The Kerr rotation angle ΔθK of Bi2Se3 was found to significantly depend on the photon energy around a resonance transition (∼1.0 eV) of bulk states, as well as the ellipticity of the pump light, in the presence of spin excitation. The observed photon-energy dependence of ΔθK can be well simulated by assuming spin-dependent refractive-index changes in the presence of bandgap renormalization and state-filling effect upon photoexcitation. Our study delivers comprehensive insights into the opto-spintronic properties of bulk Bi2Se3 and the fundamental physical processes underlying polarization changes. These findings are expected to be crucial in developing ultrafast magneto-optical memory devices, which can perform read-and-write operations in the terahertz regime.

Coherent optical response driven by non-equilibrium electron–phonon dynamics in a layered transition-metal dichalcogenide

　概要を見る

Layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are model systems to explore ultrafast many-body interactions and various nonlinear optical phenomena. For the application of TMD-based optoelectronic devices capable of ultrafast response, it is essential to understand how characteristic electron–hole and electron–phonon couplings modify ultrafast electronic and optical properties under photoexcitation. Here, we investigate the sub-picosecond optical responses of layered semiconductor 2H–MoTe2 in the presence of an electron–hole (e–h) plasma and a long-lived coherent phonon. Transient reflectivity measurements depending on photon energy reveal that the optical response for short-time delays (&lt; 1ps) was significantly modified by band-gap renormalization and state filling due to the presence of the e–h plasma. Furthermore, octave, sum, and difference phonon frequencies transiently appeared for the early time delays (&lt; 2ps). The emergent multiple phonon frequencies can be described as higher-order optical modulations due to deformation-potential electron–phonon coupling under resonant photoexcitation conditions. This work provides comprehensive insights into fundamental physics and the application of non-equilibrium quasiparticle generations on TMDs under time-periodic phonon driving forces.
