Abstract: The electronic phase behavior and functionality of interfaces and surfaces in complex materials are strongly correlated to chemical composition profiles, stoichiometry and intermixing. Here a novel analysis scheme for resonant X-ray reflectivity maps is introduced to determine such profiles, which is element specific and non-destructive, and which exhibits atomic-layer resolution and a probing depth of hundreds of nanometers.

“Interface-induced modulation of charge and polarization in thin film Fe3O4”. Tian H, Verbeeck J, Brück S, Paul M, Kufer D, Sing M, Claessen R, Van Tendeloo G, Advanced materials 26, 461 (2014). http://doi.org/10.1002/adma.201303329
Abstract: Charge and polarization modulations in Fe3O4 are controlled by taking advantage of interfacial strain effects. The feasibility of oxidation state control by strain modification is demonstrated and it is shown that this approach offers a stable configuration at room temperature. Direct evidence of how a local strain field changes the atomic coordination and introduces atomic displacements leading to polarization of Fe ions is presented.

“Fe3O4/ZnO : a high-quality magnetic oxide-semiconductor heterostructure by reactive deposition”. Paul M, Kufer D, Müller A, Brück S, Goering E, Kamp M, Verbeeck J, Tian H, Van Tendeloo G, Ingle NJC, Sing M, Claessen R, Applied physics letters 98, 012512 (2011). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.3540653
Abstract: We demonstrate the epitaxial growth of Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> films on ZnO by a simple reactive deposition procedure using molecular oxygen as an oxidizing agent. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results evidence that the iron-oxide surface is nearly stoichiometric magnetite. X-ray diffraction results indicate monocrystalline epitaxy and almost complete structural relaxation. Scanning transmission electron micrographs reveal that the microstructure consists of domains which are separated by antiphase boundaries or twin boundaries. The magnetite films show rather slow magnetization behavior in comparison with bulk crystals probably due to reduced magnetization at antiphase boundaries in small applied fields.
