    Abstract: Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite has demonstrated tremendous potential for the next generation of electronic and optoelectronic devices due to their remarkable carrier dynamics. However, current studies of electronic and optoelectronic devices have been focused on polycrystalline materials, due to the challenges in synthesizing device compatible high quality single crystalline materials. Here, we firstly report the epitaxial growth of single crystal hybrid perovskites with controlled locations, morphologies, and orientations, using combined strategies of lithography, homoepitaxy, and low temperature solution method. The crystals grow following a layer-by-layer model under controlled growth parameters. The process is robust and can be readily scaled up. The as-grown epitaxial single crystals were integrated in an array of light emitting diodes, each crystal as a pixel with enhanced quantum efficiencies. This capability opens up new opportunities for designing and fabricating a diverse range of high performance electronic and optoelectronic devices using crystalline hybrid perovskites.

    Abstract: In a general aspect, a ceramic thin film with nanotwinned regions at a tunable volume fraction is manufactured. In some aspects, a method for manufacturing a ceramic thin film on a surface of a substrate in an evacuated chamber is disclosed. The ceramic thin film includes crystalline grains; and each of the crystalline grains includes one or more nanotwinned regions. The one or more nanotwinned regions have a volume fraction in a range of 30-80% of the ceramic thin film. The ceramic thin film comprises titanium, nitrogen, and boron. A plurality of targets including a plurality of sputtering materials is prepared. A gas atmosphere in the evacuated chamber is formed. Electric power is supplied to the plurality of targets to cause co-sputtering of the plurality of sputtering materials to form the ceramic thin film with the one or more nanotwinned regions.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of growing thin film diamond. Since there are micro-grooves formed between internal grains of the heterogeneous substrate during lateral epitaxy growth, diamond seeds are allowed to be embedded in the micro-grooves; surface damage caused by scratching method or seeding method also can be prevented. As a result, a continuous diamond thin film with uniform thickness and high quality can be obtained.
