Abstract

Strontium titanate SrTiO3(100), (110), and (111) single crystals, undoped or donor doped with up to 1 at% La, were isothermally equilibrated at temperatures between 1523 and 1773 K in synthetic air followed by two different methods of Sr tracer deposition: ion implantation of 87Sr and chemical solution deposition of a thin 86SrTiO3 layer. Subsequently, the samples were diffusion annealed under the same conditions as before. The initial and final depth profiles were measured by SIMS. For strong La-doping both tracer deposition methods yield similar Sr diffusion coefficients, whereas for weak doping the tracer seems to be immobile in the case of ion implantation. The Sr diffusivity does not depend on the crystal orientation, but shows strong dependency on the dopant concentration supporting the defect chemical model that under oxidizing conditions the donor is compensated by Sr vacancies. A comparison with literature data on Sr vacancy, Ti, and La diffusion in this system confirms the concept that all cations move via Sr vacancies. Cation diffusion is several orders of magnitude slower than oxygen diffusion.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
