Epitaxial Pd-Doped LaFeO3 Films Grown on (100) SrTiO3 by Pulsed Laser Deposition

Article Preview

Abstract:

Single-crystalline, epitaxial LaFeO3 films with 5 at. % substitution of Pd on the Fe site are grown on (100) SrTiO3 substrate by pulsed-laser deposition technique. The epitaxial orientation relationships are (110)[001]LFPO||(100)[001]STO. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy reveal that the LFPO films have high structural quality and an atomically sharp LFPO/STO interface. After reduction treatments of as-grown LFPO films, very little Pd escaped the LFPO lattice onto the film surface, the formed Pd (100) particles are oriented epitaxially, and parallel to the LFPO films surface.
