| タイトル | Brownmillerite SrFeOx epitaxial thin films: Topotactic phase transformation, orientation control, and improper ferroelectricity |
| 講演趣旨 | Strontium ferrite (SrFeOx, SFO) exhibits a rich x-dependent electronic and magnetic phases, ranging from an antiferromagnetic insulating to a ferromagnetic metallic phase. By decreasing x (or increasing oxygen vacancy concentration) from nominal 3.0 (perovskite) to 2.5 (brownmillerite), the valence state of Fe changes from 4+ to 3+, which greatly influences the material’s crystal and electronic structures. A wide variety of physical and chemical behavior can be observed from the materials system, ranging from the topotactic phase transformation to improper ferroelectricity. In the first part of the talk, we will discuss topotactic phase transformation in SrFeOx epitaxial thin films studied by real-time spectroscopic ellipsometry. The topotactic phase transformation illustrates strong correlation among defect concentration, atomic and electronic structure. A pressure-temperature phase diagram of topotactic phase transformation is constructed and discussed in terms of thermodynamic calculation. In the second part, we will present thermodynamic control of crystallographic orientation of the anisotropic brownmillerite SrFeO2.5 thin film on SrTiO3 substrate. The anisotropic electronic and phonon structures are discussed based on the layered crystal structure and orbital dependent optical transitions. The simple control of oxygen vacancy channel orientation has a large implication in designing functional properties such as oxygen ion conduction and hydrogen strogate. In the third part, the brownmillerite SrFeO2.5 thin film is examined in terms of improper ferroelectricity. The inversion symmetry of the crystal can be broken based on the specific ordering of rotated FeO4 tetrahedral units. This leads to a structural ferroelectricity in the material, which can be confirmed by different experimental approaches. |
