The film deposited at lower oxygen pressure has a larger lattice parameter in the direction normal to the substrate surface, and the film has smaller grains and a smoother surface. The polarized Raman peaks of both as-deposited films show blue shifts and linewidth broadening in comparison to those of the BaTiO3 single crystal. The blue shifts are attributed to tensile stresses in the films. Our results indicate that the grain size increases and the tensile stress relaxes with annealing. We have shown that quantum confinement and oxygen vacancies are not the dominant factors for the observed Raman spectral changes. | Source Title: | Journal of Physics Condensed Matter | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/98036 | ISSN: | 09538984 | DOI: | 10.1088/0953-8984/12/31/303 |
