High quality rutile Ti1-xSnxO2 nanofilms were successfully grown in a layer-by-layer mode at a moderately low temperature of 400 °C using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). High solid solubility of up to x = 0.216 has been achieved in the Ti1-xSnxO2 films despite theoretical prediction by Density functi...
