Preferential Orientation of Photochromic Gadolinium Oxyhydride Films

Preferential Orientation of Photochromic Gadolinium Oxyhydride Films

We report preferential orientation control in photochromic gadolinium oxyhydride (GdHO) thin films deposited by a two-step process. Gadolinium hydride (GdH<sub>2-x</sub>) films were grown by reactive magnetron sputtering, followed by oxidation in air. The preferential orientation, grain...
