First principles investigation of Sr-rich phases in SrTiO3 — •Ivetta Slipukhina, Stefan Blügel, and Marjana Ležaić — Peter Grünberg Institut, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, 52425 Jülich, Germany

Perovskite-type oxides exhibit a whole variety of functionlities, among which resistive switching is one of the most interesting due to the potential use in non-volatile random access memory. In many of these materials the unintentionally formed secondary phases are known to be responsible for the observed resistive switching phenomena. Recently, Sr-rich secondary phases were observed during electroforming in SrTiO3 thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition [A. Köhl, PhD thesis]. The structure and composition of these phases are unknown so far. By means of ab initio calculations, we have considered possible mechanisms for the formation of Sr-rich phases in SrTiO3 and compared the calculated electronic structures with the existing experimental XPS and XAS data.
