It's #CitationTuesday! Check out our recent publication in which graduate student John Hylak successfully grew epitaxial thin films of FeWO4, a potential photoanode material for solar fuel devices, and modulated the electro-optic properties through MBE growth conditions. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
Growth and Characterization of Epitaxial FeWO4 Thin Films with Controlled Oxygen Stoichiometry
We report the growth of single-phase epitaxial FeWO4 thin films, using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy, and investigate structural, optical, and electronic properties. The FeWO4 films grow in (...

The idea of traveling through interstellar space may sound like the stuff of sci-fi novels. The concept is to use lasers to propel miniature space probes attached to "lightsails" to reach ultrafast speeds and eventually our nearest star system.
