    Adsorption-controlled growth of La-doped BaSnO3 by molecular-beam epitaxy
    (Melville, NY : AIP Publ., 2017) Paik, Hanjong; Chen, Zhen; Lochocki, Edward; Seidner H., Ariel; Verma, Amit; Tanen, Nicholas; Park, Jisung; Uchida, Masaki; Shang, ShunLi; Zhou, Bi-Cheng; Brützam, Mario; Uecker, Reinhard; Liu, Zi-Kui; Jena, Debdeep; Shen, Kyle M.; Muller, David A.; Schlom, Darrell G.
    Epitaxial La-doped BaSnO3 films were grown in an adsorption-controlled regime by molecular-beam epitaxy, where the excess volatile SnOx desorbs from the film surface. A film grown on a (001) DyScO3 substrate exhibited a mobility of 183 cm2 V-1 s-1 at room temperature and 400 cm2 V-1 s-1 at 10 K despite the high concentration (1.2 × 1011 cm-2) of threading dislocations present. In comparison to other reports, we observe a much lower concentration of (BaO)2 Ruddlesden-Popper crystallographic shear faults. This suggests that in addition to threading dislocations, other defects - possibly (BaO)2 crystallographic shear defects or point defects - significantly reduce the electron mobility.

    Photoemission electron microscopy of magneto-ionic effects in La0.7Sr0.3MnO3
    (Melville, NY : AIP Publ., 2020) Wilhelm, Marek; Giesen, Margret; Duchoň, Tomáš; Moors, Marco; Mueller, David N.; Hackl, Johanna; Baeumer, Christoph; Hamed, Mai Hussein; Cao, Lei; Zhang, Hengbo; Petracic, Oleg; Glöß, Maria; Cramm, Stefan; Nemšák, Slavomír; Wiemann, Carsten; Dittmann, Regina; Schneider, Claus M.; Müller, Martina
    Magneto-ionic control of magnetism is a promising route toward the realization of non-volatile memory and memristive devices. Magneto-ionic oxides are particularly interesting for this purpose, exhibiting magnetic switching coupled to resistive switching, with the latter emerging as a perturbation of the oxygen vacancy concentration. Here, we report on electric-field-induced magnetic switching in a La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) thin film. Correlating magnetic and chemical information via photoemission electron microscopy, we show that applying a positive voltage perpendicular to the film surface of LSMO results in the change in the valence of the Mn ions accompanied by a metal-to-insulator transition and a loss of magnetic ordering. Importantly, we demonstrate that the voltage amplitude provides granular control of the phenomena, enabling fine-tuning of the surface electronic structure. Our study provides valuable insight into the switching capabilities of LSMO that can be utilized in magneto-ionic devices. © 2020 Author(s).
