Epitaxial BiFeO3/SrRuO3 superlattices have been grown by pulsed laser deposition on a (001) oriented LaAlO3 substrate and probed by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. To investigate the structural competition between rhombohedral…
The epitaxial stabilization of a single layer or superlattice structures composed of complex oxide materials on polar (111) surfaces is severely burdened by reconstructions at the interface, that commonly arise to neutralize the polarity.…
In ABO3 perovskites, oxygen octahedron rotations are common structural distortions that can promote large ferroelectricity in BiFeO3 with an R3c structure [1], but suppress ferroelectricity in CaTiO3 with a Pbnm symmetry [2]. For many…
Superlattices consist of two ferromagnets La0.7Sr0.3MnO3(LSMO)and SrRuO3(SRO) were grown in (110)-orientation on SrTiO3(STO) substrates. The x-ray diffraction and Raman spectra of these superlattices show the presence of in-plane…
Ferroelectric and photovoltaic properties of BiFeO3/LaFeO3 superlattices grown by pulsed laser deposition have been investigated being the bilayer thickness). For a high concentration of BiFeO3 a ferroelectric state is observed…
Superlattices composed of ferromagnetics, namely La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ (LCMO), and ferroelectrics, namely, BaTiO$_3$(BTO) were grown on SrTiO$_3$ at 720$^o$C by pulsed laser deposition process. While the out-of-plane lattice…
We carry out first-principles calculations for CaTiO$_3$/BaTiO$_3$ superlattices with epitaxial strain corresponding to growth on a SrTiO$_3$ substrate, and consider octahedral rotations as well as ferroelectric distortions. The…
NiO6 octahedral tilts in the LaNiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices are quantified using position averaged convergent beam electron diffraction in scanning transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that maintaining oxygen octahedra connectivity…
Heteroepitaxial superlattices of [YBa2Cu3O7(n)/ La0.67Ca0.33MnO3(m)]x, where n and m are the number of YBCO and LCMO monolayers and x the number of bilayer repetitions, have been grown with pulsed laser deposition on NdGaO3 (110) and…
The crystal structure and local spontaneous polarization of (BaTiO3)m/(SrTiO3)n superlattices is calculated using a first-principles density functional theory method. The in-plane lattice constant is 1% larger than the SrTiO3 substrate to…
High-quality Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3/SrRuO3 superlattices with ultrathin layers were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition on SrTiO3 substrates. The superlattices were studied by atomically resolved scanning transmission electron microscopy,…
Unlike widely explored complex oxide heterostructures grown along [001], the study of [111]-oriented heterointerfaces are very limited thus far. One of the main challenges is to overcome the polar discontinuity that hinders the epitaxy of…
Superlattices (SLs) consisted of alternating Bi2Se3 and In2Se3 layers are grown on Si(111) by molecular-beam epitaxy. Bi2Se3, a three-dimensional topological insulator (TI), showed good chemical and structural compatibility with In2Se3, a…
We model short-period superlattices of WO$_3$ and ReO$_3$ with first-principles calculations. In fully-relaxed superlattices, we observe that octahedral tilts about an axis in the planes of the superlattices do not propagate from one…
Ferroelectric-dielectric superlattices have attracted renewed interest for their ability to frustrate the polar order, leading to the emergence of exotic polar textures. The electrostatic depolarization, thought to be responsible for the…
Properties of (BaTiO$_3$)$_1$/(BaZrO$_3$)$_n$ ferroelectric superlattices (SLs) with $n = {}$1--7 grown in the [001] direction are calculated from first principles within the density functional theory. It is revealed that the…
The tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural phase transition (SPT) in LaFeAsO (La-1111) and SmFeAsO (Sm-1111) single crystals measured by high resolution x-ray diffraction is found to be sharp while the RFeAsO (R=La, Nd, Pr, Sm)…
The effect of epitaxial strain on the phonon spectra, crystal structure, spontaneous polarization, dielectric, piezoelectric, and elastic properties of (001)-oriented ferroelectric (BaTiO$_3$)$_m$/(SrTiO$_3$)$_n$ superlattices ($m = n =…
We have investigated the magnetotransport properties of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/BaTiO3 superlattices, grown on SrTiO3 substrate by pulsed laser deposition technique, both with current-in-plane and current-perpendicular-to-the-plane directions.…
We present the temperature- and thickness-dependent structural and morphological evolution of strain induced transformations in highly-strained epitaxial BiFeO3 films deposited on LaAlO3 (001) substrates. Using high-resolution X-ray…
