Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Development of epitaxial, monocrystalline metal/semiconductor superlattices with well‐defined, sharp and abrupt interfaces has been long sought to design the next generations of electronic, optic and thermal transport based devices. With a motivation to integrate nitride semiconductors with rocksalt transition nitride metals (such as TiN, TaN, ZrN etc.), Saha et al. have developed rocksalt Al_xSc_1‐xN semiconductors with tunable structural, electronic, and optical properties that enable high quality epitaxial rocksalt metal/Al_xSc_1‐xN superlattices with a wide range of accessible metamaterials properties. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh3r5mpctd" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
