Abstract

Abstract We fabricated conductive SrTaO3 epitaxial films on insulator substrates and measured Rashba parameter using weak anti-localization analysis. The Rashba parameter, reaching up to 9.9×10-13 eVm, is the highest among metallic oxides and is comparable to the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface, which is widely used in Rashba effect studies. This indicates the potential for oxide-based spintronic devices. To use them as devices, it is important to investigate how film thickness affects resistivity. Films ranging from 8.6 to 25 nm exhibited metallic conduction, but those thicker than 25 nm showed an unexpected increase in resistivity, suggesting instability of the meta-stable Ta4+ state
