Structural analysis of LaVO3 thin films under epitaxial strain

Rare earth vanadate perovskites exhibit a phase diagram in which two different types of structural distortions coexist: the strongest, the rotation of the oxygen octahedra, comes from the small tolerance factor of the perovskite cell (t = 0.88 for LaVO3) and the smaller one comes from inter-site d-o...
