Abstract
In this paper we report on the deposition of La0.99Ca0.01NbO4 thin films with scheelite-type crystal structure. Thanks to the film's nanostructure, we were able to stabilize the tetragonal scheelite-type structure phase at room temperature, which involves a full removal of the fergusonite-scheelite phase transition.

Thanks to the film’s nanostructure, we were able to stabilize the tetragonal scheelitetype structure phase at room temperature, which involves a full removal of the fergusonite–scheelite phase transition
There is a strong interest in the study of proton conducting oxides that could overcome the drawbacks of Y-doped BaCeO3 which, at present, is the state-of-the-art electrolyte for intermediate temperature fuel cells (IT-SOFC).[1]
Summary
Nanoscale stabilization of the scheelite-type structure in La0.99Ca0.01NbO4 thin films In this paper we report on the deposition of La0.99Ca0.01NbO4 thin films with scheelite-type crystal structure.
