Oxygen vacancy engineering in pulsed laser deposited BaSnO3 thin films on SrTiO3

We demonstrate the tunability of the oxygen content in pulsed laser deposition-grown barium stannate thin films (BaSn O3, BSO) by precisely controlling the background oxygen pressure over a broad range from 0.0004 to 0.13 mbar. The introduction of oxygen vacancies (OV) significantly alters the struc...
