Coexisting structural phases in the catalytically driven growth of rock salt GdN

We present a study of polycrystalline thin films of the rock salt rare earth nitride GdN grown on amorphous fused silica at ambient temperature with varying N _2 pressure. X-ray diffraction measurements show a strong (111) preferential orientation for all N _2 pressure and the signature of a seconda...
