Peacock (2020) Laser-Driven Phase Segregation and Tailoring of Compositionally Graded Microstructures in Si-Ge Nanoscale Thin Films ACS Applied materials and Interfaces Description: The excel file contains all experimental and simulation data used for generating Fig.2 to Fig.5. The figures are as follows: Fig. 2 FEM-based phase-field simulations of laser-driven phase segregation in Si0.4Ge0.6 nanoscale thin films on Si substrates. Fig. 3 Micro-focus synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the laser-written poly-SiGe microstripes. Fig. 4 Micro-Raman spectroscopy of the laser-written polycrystalline SiGe microstripes. Fig. 5 MSM Schottky photoconductor detectors constructed on the 3 µm wide laser-written poly-SiGe microstripes with scan-speed-tunable absorption edge.
