摘要

(111)-oriented 5%La: HfO2 (HLO) thin films have been successfully deposited on La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 buffered (111)-oriented SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The growth of the orthorhombic HLO films with a rhombohedral distortion follows a domain matching epitaxy mechanism and twin domains appear as revealed by atomic resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy. These (111)-oriented HLO films show 6-fold in-plane symmetry due to the twin domains rotated 180° to each other around the surface normal. The HLO films, 15 nm in thickness, on (111)-oriented STO exhibit robust ferroelectric properties with an optimized remanent polarization around 13 µC/cm2 without any wake-up process.
