Table 1. Films thickness vs transport properties and STM findings.
Nominal Thickness [nm] | Measured Thickness [nm] | M-I Transition | MR @ RT | Atomic Resolution @ RT |
---|---|---|---|---|
2 | (2.2 ± 0.1)a | NO | NO | YES |
4 | (3.7 ± 0.1)a | <RT | NO | YES |
6 | (6 ± 1)b | RT | YES | NO |
13 | (15 ± 2)b | >RT | YES | NO |
25 | (20 ± 2)b | >RT | YES | NO |
