Abstract:We have studied the effects of Zn doping on the structural and electronic properties of epitaxial NdNiO3 thin films grown on single-crystal LaAlO3 (001) (LAO) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The films are deposited in two sets, one with variation in Zn doping, and another with variation in thickness for undoped and 2% Zn doping. The experimental investigations show that Zn occupies Ni-site and that the films are grown with an in-plane compressive strain on LAO. All the films show metal-to-insulator tran… Show more
