摘要:

用Mueller矩阵椭圆偏振法研究了室温下多铁性BiFeO $_3$薄膜的各向异性光学性质。报道了在LaAlO $_3$和SrTiO $_3$单晶衬底上外延生长的四方形和菱形形BiFeO $_3$相在0.6和6.5 eV光谱范围内的全介电张量。应变驱动的各向异性变化和跃迁位移以及亚带隙多粒子激发的证据被发现。跃迁位移,主要是更高的能量的高应变四方形的BiFeO $_3$相在LaAlO $_3$,是指示能带结构的差异。此外,通过压电力显微镜研究证实的光学建模显示,双变BiFeO $_3$在LaAlO $_3$上的平均极化方向不平行于晶体学[001]方向,而是倾斜约$7^{\circ}$。光谱权重分析揭示了相位相关的差异,强调光学光谱的理论计算需要进一步改进,以适当地考虑电子和激子的相关性,以充分了解多铁性BiFeO $_3$。

英文摘要:

The anisotropic optical properties of multiferroic BiFeO$_3$ thin films have been determined with Mueller matrix ellipsometry at room-temperature. The full dielectric tensors of tetragonal-like and rhombohedral-like BiFeO$_3$ phases epitaxially grown on LaAlO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$ single crystal substrates, respectively, within the spectral range of 0.6 and 6.5 eV are reported. Strain-driven anisotropy changes and transition shifts are observed as well as evidence of sub-band gap many-particle excitations are found. The transition shifts, mostly to higher energies for the highly strained tetragonal-like BiFeO$_3$ phase on LaAlO$_3$, are indicative of band structure differences. Additionally, optical modelling, confirmed by piezoelectric force microscopy studies, revealed that the average polarization direction of bivariant BiFeO$_3$ on LaAlO$_3$ is not parallel to the crystallographic [001] direction but tilted by about $7^{\circ}$. Spectral weight analyses reveal phase-dependent differences underlining that theoretical calculations of optical spectra need further improvement to appropriately account for electronic and excitonic correlations to fully understand multiferroic BiFeO$_3$.
