摘要
Two-variant stripe domains in BiFeO3 films on miscut (001) SrTiO3 substrates exhibit squarelike, complete ferroelectric switching with low leakage current. Both the preferential distortion of BiFeO3 unit cells and the persistent step-flow growth induced by the substrate anisotropy are the origins of the formation of the twovariant stripe domains in (001) BiFeO3 films.
