Charge Carrier Transport in Iron Pyrite Thin Films: Disorder Induced Variable Range Hopping

Sudhanshu Shukla, Sinu Mathew, Hwan Sung Choe +8

The origin of p-type conductivity and the mechanism responsible for low carrier mobility was investigated in pyrite (FeS2) thin films. Temperature dependent resistivity measurement…

Periodic elastic nanodomains in ultrathin tetrogonal-like BiFeO3 films

Zhenlin Luo, Zuhuang Chen, Yuanjun Yang +14

We present a synchrotron grazing incidence x-ray diffraction analysis of the domain structure and polar symmetry of highly strained BiFeO3 thin films grown on LaAlO3 substrate. We…

Large tensile strain induced monoclinic MB phase in BiFeO3 epitaxial thin films on PrScO3 substrate

Zuhuang Chen, Yajun Qi, Lu You +5

Crystal and domain structures of tensile-strained BiFeO3 films grown on orthorhombic (110)o PrScO3 substrates were investigated. All films possess a MB-type monoclinic structure wi…

Study of strain effect on in-plane polarization in epitaxial BiFeO3 thin films using planar electrodes

Zuhuang Chen, Xi Zou, Wei Ren +8

Epitaxial strain plays an important role in determining physical properties of perovskite ferroelectric oxide thin films. However, it is very challenging to directly measure proper…
