Comparison of interface structure of BCC metallic (Fe, V and Nb) films on MgO (100) substrate

Abstract: This study systematically investigates the interface structure of three body-centered-cubic (BCC) metallic (Fe, V and Nb) films grown on MgO(100) substrates through experiments and simulations. Orientation relationships of their interfaces with the different lattice mismatch exhibit cube-on-cube configurations. The misfit dislocations at these three interfaces exhibit different characteristics. High resolution TEM (HRTEM), combined with first principle calculations, demonstrates the O-atop match type between m… Show more

“…This can be attributed to two factors as follows: (i) as the amount of Sm 3+ dopants increases, the lattice mismatch between NBST thin film and substrate increases from 1.36% to 1.49% caused by the lattice contraction, that would inhibit the grains grow and lead to decline in the degree of the grain‐orientation . The lattice mismatch (η) between NBST thin films and Pt substrate was calculated by the following formula:η=2|atasfalse|anormalt+anormalswhere a t is the lattice constant of thin film and a s = 0.3923 nm is the lattice constant of substrate (Pt). (ii) Orientation of the NBST thin films is strongly precursor dependent .…”

“…At room temperature (RT, 300 K), the lattice constants of the body-centred cubic (bcc) structure of Fe, V atoms and the face-centred cubic (fcc) structure of MgO are 0.287 nm, 0.303 nm and 0.421 nm, respectively. Rotating the bcc structures of the Fe and V atoms by 45 • with respect to the MgO [100] axis, the lattice mismatches were reduced to ∼4% and 2% for bcc Fe-and V-layers, respectively [19]. The superlattices are noted as X(Fe)/Y(V) × Z, where X, Y and Z represent the number of MLs of iron and vanadium, and repetition periods, respectively.…”

“…The substrate was heated to and kept at 100 °C during deposition. The cross-sectional TEM (XTEM) specimens were prepared by dimpling and low energy (3.5 keV) Ar ion milling and subsequent ion polishing [ 24,25 ]. Before and after radiation, the specimen was investigated by an FEI Tecnai F20 microscope (FEI, Hillsboro, OR, USA).…”
