In situ monitoring of atomic layer epitaxy via optical ellipsometry
Abstract We report on the use of time-resolved optical ellipsometry to monitor the deposition of single atomic layers with subatomic sensitivity. Ruddlesden–Popper thin films of SrO(SrTiO3)n=4 were grown by means of metalorganic aerosol deposition in the atomic layer epitaxy mode on SrTiO3(1 0 0), LSAT(1 0 0) and DyScO3(1 1 0) substrates. The measured time dependences of ellipsometric angles, Δ(t) and Ψ(t), were described by using a simple optical model, considering the sequence of atomic layers SrO and TiO2 with corresponding bulk refractive indices. As a result, valuable online information on the atomic layer epitaxy process was obtained. Ex situ characterization techniques, i.e. transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray reflectometry verify the crystal structure and confirm the predictions of optical ellipsometry.EU FP 7 Project ‘IFOX’Swiss National Foundatio

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
