“…The RHEED patterns ͓Figs. 1͑c͒ and 1͑d͔͒ are similar to those observed 10,11 12 although the large lattice mismatch of 5% probably leads to films of quality inferior to the present case. However, even a lattice mismatch of 1.9% is not expected to yield the sharp and streaky patterns we observe in Figs.…”

“…MgO has the most intense peak and the thin film peak is shifted by ∆ω ~0.15º with respect to the MgO peak. By adding the ∆ω between the MgO peak and the [4,9], scanning tunnelling microscopy [3] and magnetic force microscopy [9] studies, the exact structure of APBs is not yet clear. The regions around APBs could be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric as the APBs themselves are metastable defects.…”

“…Strain in epitaxial magnetite films has a strong influence on the magnetic and magneto-transport properties. Though there exist reports on the growth and characterisation of thin films of magnetite on different substrates [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11], the strain relaxation behaviour in Fe 3 O 4 /MgO films grown by sputtering technique has not been investigated in detail. The lattice mismatch between the film and substrate is − 0.344%.…”

“…12 The magnetic structures in the presence of APB found so far are irregular. 7,13 In this study we employed epitaxial Fe 3 O 4 films that were subjected to a short mild annealing under ambient conditions ͑250°C, 4 min͒. Such a post-growth annealing only marginally changes the stochiometry of magnetite to Fe 3−␦ O 4 with a value of ␦ Ϸ 0.03± 0.01 as determined from Mössbauer measurements.…”
