Sr1+δCrO3–x epitaxial thin films with −0.14 ≤ δ ≤ 0.14 were grown on SrTiO3(001) substrates by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) in codeposition. The impact of the deviation from the cationic stoichiometry (δ) on the structural properties is reported. In spite of a significant in-plane lattice mismatch with the substrate (∼2.25%), all films are epitaxial with flat surfaces, present low mosaicity (∼0.1°), and keep a perovskite-based structure. However, an additional Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) phase is spontaneously formed (n = 2) for δ > 0 (Sr-rich). These results are important for further studies on structure–property relationships in the view to exploit the functional properties of Sr1+δCrO3–x-based films in devices.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Crystal Growth & Design is to stimulate crossfertilization of knowledge among scientists and engineers working in the fields of crystal growth, crystal engineering, and the industrial application of crystalline materials.
Crystal Growth & Design publishes theoretical and experimental studies of the physical, chemical, and biological phenomena and processes related to the design, growth, and application of crystalline materials. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies and integrating the fields of crystal growth, crystal engineering, intermolecular interactions, and industrial application are encouraged.
