Control of the metal-to-insulator transition by substrate orientation in nickelates

Control of the metal-to-insulator transition by substrate orientation in nickelates

We proved that the critical thickness for metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) of LaNiO3 could be controlled by substrate orientation. By means of density functional theory calculations, films grown on SrTiO3 substrates with (001), (110) and (111) orientations have different amount of charge transfer...
