Epitaxial Ba-Hexaferrite Films Prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition

Pulsed Laser Deposition of Epitaxial Titanium Diboride Thin Films

Epitaxial titanium diboride thin films have been deposited on sapphire substrates by Pulsed Laser Ablation technique. Structural properties of the films have been studied during the growth by Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED) and ex-situ by means of X-ray diffraction techniques; both kinds of measurements indicate a good crystallographic orientation of the TiB 2 film both in p...

Threading dislocation generation in epitaxial „Ba,Sr...TiO3 films grown on „001... LaAlO3 by pulsed laser deposition

Epitaxial Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 films were grown onto ~001! LaAlO3 by pulsed-laser deposition, and the dislocation structures of the films were investigated using transmission electron microscopy. Misfit dislocations with a periodicity of about 7 nm and Burgers vectors b5a^100& were observed at the interface. A high density of threading dislocations was present the films and these also had b 5a^100& ....

Nanoscopic switching behavior of epitaxial SrBi2Ta2O9 films deposited by pulsed laser deposition

Epitaxial Structure of (001)- and (111)-Oriented Perovskite Ferrate Films Grown by Pulsed-Laser Deposition

The epitaxial structures of SrFeO(2.5) films grown on SrTiO(3) (001) and (111) substrates by PLD are reported. A layer-by-layer growth mode was achieved in the initial stage on both substrates. The films were stabilized with a monoclinic structure, where we identified the in-plane domain structures and orientation relationship. Our study presents a guide to control the heteroepitaxy of (111)-or...

Structural study of epitaxial LiCoO2 films grown by pulsed laser deposition on single crystal SrTiO3 substrates

Article history: Received 11 December 2015 Received in revised form 4 May 2016 Accepted 11 May 2016 Available online 24 May 2016 Epitaxial LiCoO2 (LCO) thin films of different orientations were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in order to model single-crystal behavior of intercalation cathodes during electrochemical reactions. This paper demonstrates that (1) epitaxial growth of LCO ...
