Electron‐Beam‐Induced Perovskite–Brownmillerite–Perovskite Structural Phase Transitions in Epitaxial La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 Films. (19th February 2014) - Yao, Lide
Abstract Structural phase transitions 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 La2/3Sr1/3MnO3. 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.
