Origin of abnormal structural transformation in a (BiPb)FeO3/SrRuO3/SrTiO3 hetero-structure probed by Rutherford backscattering

Abstract Scientific efforts are growing to understand artificial BiFeO3/SrRuO3/SrTiO3-heterostructures, wherein an altered environment at each interface, caused by epitaxial strains, broken symmetry, off-stoichiometry and charge transfer, can generate a rich spectrum of exotic properties. Herein, (B...
