X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to detect an intergranular impurity film in two (Ba x Cs y )(Mn z Ti 8− z )O 16 hollandite samples sintered in argon and air, respectively. This impurity film is enriched in Cs and Ba, as a result of segregation during high‐temperature processing. The Cs ions in the grain‐boun…

Abstract Film stability of functionalised plasma polymer (PP) films in aqueous environments is an issue. Whilst methods are routinely employed to enhance aqueous stability, the issue itself has not previously been systematically studied. Herein, we describe a method using gradient PP surfaces whereby aqueous stability…

Abstract Epitaxial thin films of bismuth ferrite, BiFeO 3 , were deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on SrTiO 3 (100), Nb‐doped SrTiO 3 (100) and DyScO 3 (110) substrates. Ellipsometric spectra are obtained in the energy range 0.73‐9.5 eV by combining Variable Angle Spectroscopic Ellipsometry (VASE) and vacuum…
