摘要
Well-crystallized epitaxial YbFe2O4 films were prepared on an alpha-Al2O3(001) substrate using an Fe3O4 buffer layer. Fe3O4 has a relatively small lattice mismatch with both YbFe2O4 and alpha-Al2O3. Electron diffraction analysis combined with transmission electron microscopy revealed the epitaxial relationship to be alpha-Al2O3[110](001) parallel to Fe3O4[211](111) parallel to YbFe2O4[110](001). Moreover, superlattice spots due the Fe2+-Fe3+ charge order state of YbFe2O4 were clarified. The Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio in YbFe2O4 was nearly stoichiometric. The film exhibited a ferrimagnetic transition at similar to 220K and a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic at room temperature. These results confirmed the good crystallinity and stoichiometry of the obtained YbFe2O4 films. (C) 2018 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
