Magnetic field-assisted chemical vapor deposition of iron oxide thin films: Influence of field–matter interactions on phase composition and morphology

The current cover of the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters features our recent paper on magnetic field-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Within, we showcase the magnetic field as a versatile parameter for the control of phase composition, structure, and magnetic properties of iron oxide films grown via CVD. The methodology is applicable to a broader class of materials and provides a new degree of freedom to the scalable growth process.
