Title: Role of temperature and oxygen content on structural and electrical properties of LaBaCo2O5+δ thin films

Abstract

Here, the role of temperature and the oxygen content in the structural transformation and electrical conductivity of epitaxial double perovskite LaBaCo2O5+δ (0≤ δ ≤ 1) thin films was systematically investigated. Reciprocal space mapping and ω-2θ x-ray diffraction performed at different temperatures in vacuum indicate that oxygen vacancies in the films become ordered at high temperature in a reducing environment. The changes of the oxygen content and the degree of oxygen vacancy ordering in the films result in a strong in-plane anisotropic lattice deformation and a large thermal expansion coefficient along the c-axis direction. The electrical conductivity measurements reveal that these behaviors are related to the degree of oxygen vacancy formation and lattice deformation in the films.
