A Comparative Analysis on the Crystalline Behavior, Topographical, Photoluminescence, and Leakage Current Characteristics of BiFeO3 Nanopowders and Thin Films
Abstract:Thin films and nanocrystalline powders of BiFeO3 (BFO) are prepared from pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and sol–gel process, respectively. Their grain sizes, microstrain, morphological features, leakage current characteristics, and photoluminescence (PL) emission behavior are investigated and compared with each other. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) technique has been utilized to compute the grain sizes and crystalline strain values for the thin films and nanopowders of BFO through Williamson–Hall (W–H) plots. XRD and … Show more
