Abstract

An interfacial epitaxial BiMnO 3 layer was fabricated by chemical solution deposition on SrTiO 3 (100) substrate, and the microstructure of the film was analyzed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The TEM observation revealed the epitaxial growth of BiMnO 3 on the SrTiO 3 substrate as follows: ([110](001)) BiMnO 3||[0-10](001) SrTiO 3 . XRD and TEM analyses revealed that the mismatch between the epitaxial BiMnO 3 and the SrTiO 3 substrate causes a distortion in lattice parameters of BiMnO 3 and, consequently, a large compressive strain in the BiMnO 3 layer.
