Tailoring the electronic transitions of NdNiO3 films through (111)pc oriented interfaces

Bulk NdNiO3 and thin films grown along the pseudocubic (001)pc axis display a 1st order metal to insulator transition (MIT) together with a Néel transition at T = 200 K. Here, we show that for NdNiO3 films deposited on (111)pc NdGaO3, the MIT occurs at T = 335 K and the Néel transition at T = 230 K....
