Abstract:
In this paper we report on the deposition of La0.99Ca0.01NbO4 thin films with scheelite-type crystal structure. Thanks to the film's nanostructure, we were able to stabilize the tetragonal scheelite-type structure phase at room temperature, which involves a full removal of the fergusonite-scheelite phase transition.
