Abstract
Pulsed laser deposition was used for the growth of uniformly a-axis-oriented, epitaxially twinned La-substituted Bi4Ti3O12 (BLT) films. The volume fraction of the BLT (100) orientation was increased up to 99% using SrRuO3 bottom electrodes of a specific low thickness in combination with a high growth rate and a high oxygen pressure. The growth of fully a-axis-oriented BLT films was achieved, attaining a remanent polarization.
