Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201305656-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Structural phase transitions</bold> driven by oxygen‐vacancy ordering can drastically affect the properties of transition metal oxides. The focused electron beam of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) can be used to control structural phase transitions in epitaxial La_2/3Sr_1/3MnO₃. The ability to induce and characterize oxygen‐deficient structural phases simultaneously in a continuous and controllable manner opens up new pathways for atomic‐scale studies of transition metal oxides and other complex materials. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh5bngk5" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
