AbstractInfinite-layer-structure epitaxial thin films of SrFeO2 and LaNiO2 respectively were prepared by low-temperature reduction with CaH2 from brownmillerite SrFeO2.5 and perovskite LaNiO3 epitaxial thin films grown on single-crystal substrates. The reduction process, removing oxygen ions from the perovskite-structure framework and causing rearrangements of oxygen ions, topotactically transforms the initial compounds to the c-axis oriented infinite-layer-structure epitaxial thin films. Consequently, the oxidation state of transition-metal ions in the film changed in wide ranges.

We report on the growth of stoichiometric, single-crystal YCrO3 epitaxial thin films on (001) SrTiO3 substrates using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy reveal that the films grew in a layer-by-layer fashion with excellent crystallinity and atomically smooth surfaces. Magnetization measurements demonstrate that the material is ferromagnetic below 144 K. The temperature dependence of dielectric permittivity shows a characteristic relaxor-ferroelectric behavior at TC = 375–408 K. A dielectric anomaly at the magnetic transition temperature indicates a close correlation between magnetic and electric order parameters in these multiferroic YCrO3 films. These findings provide guidance to synthesize rare-earth, chromite-based multifunctional heterostructures and build a foundation for future studies on the understanding of magnetoelectric effects in similar material systems.
