The epitaxial growth of Mg 3 N 2 thin films by molecular beam epitaxy has been recently achieved. This work presents the structural properties of the films, including grains sizes and lattice rotations, as assessed by x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The films' microstructure consists of well-aligned columnar grains 10 nm...

Single-crystalline Zn3N2 thin films have been grown on MgO (100) and YSZ (100) substrates by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Depending on growth conditions, the film orientation can be tuned from (100) to (111). For each orientation, x-ray diffraction and reflection high-energy electron diffraction are used to determine the epitaxial...
