X-ray diffraction studies reveal both in-plane and out-of-plane alignment of the heterostructure. The epitaxial films show extremely high remnant polarization as well as piezoelectric d33 coefficients compared to textured and untextured polycrystalline films. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.}, year = {2002}, journal = {Applied Physics Letters}, volume = {80}, number = {1}, pages = {97-99}, issn = {00036951}, doi = {10.1063/1.1428413}, note = {cited By 126}, language = {eng}, }
