Résumé

Rare-earth orthoferrite RFeO3 materials such as NdFeO3 are strongly studied because of their fascinating magnetic properties and their potential applications. Here, we show the successful epitaxial synthesis of parasitic-free NFO thin film by pulsed laser deposition on (001)-SrTiO3. High-resolution X-ray diffraction shows a coherent growth and a tetragonal-like structure of a tensile strained 80 nm thick NFO film in contrast with the bulk orthorhombic state. Room temperature magnetometry indicates a bulk-like antiferromagnetic state for the NFO film. Temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction and magnetometry highlight a significant spin-lattice coupling at the Neel Temperature while a new magneto-structural instability is discovered around 250 degrees C that needs further investigation.
