Stress-induced controllable magnetic properties in flexible epitaxial Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 ferrite films

Chemical synthesis of complex oxide thin films and freestanding membranes

“…128 The most typical perovskite oxide membranes prepared from SAO have been BaTiO 3 , 129 BiFeO 3 , 118,130 LSMO, 128 STO, 131,132 and SrRuO 3 . 133 Nevertheless, the SAO sacrificial layer has also been proved useful to obtain other epitaxial oxide structures including spinels, 134,135 Fe 3 O 4 , 136 anatase TiO 2 , 137 amorphous and polycrystalline oxides 138 and more complex designs such as heterostructures, superlattices 131,139 and vertically aligned nanostructures. 140,141 Notoriously, the fabrication of freestanding complex oxides has been mainly limited to the use of high-vacuum techniques such as PLD, MBE and sputtering.…”
