Abstract
(BaTiO3/SrTiO3)15 superlattices are grown by chemical vapor deposition of organic metals (MOCVD) on <001> oriented Nb-doped SrTiO3 substrates. The source uses a pulsed liquid-injection system, with a unique precursor solution for each compound. Using a monochromatic, parallel X-ray synchrotron beam in the θ/2θ reflection diffraction geometry, the (00L) diffraction profiles are recorded from L=l to L=8. The observed satellite peaks around the fundamental (00L) Bragg reflections indicate a highly coherent superlattice arrangement, well epitaxied on the substrate. The diffraction profiles are fitted, taking into account the structural and chemical disorder which depart from the ideal defect-free perovskite superlattice. The statistical fluctuations of the thickness of each sub-layer and the coherence length of the stacking are introduced. With this modelisation, we have quantified the macro-strain and the large interdiffusion which take place at the BaTiO3/SrTiO3 interface.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
