Nanoscale phase separation was investigated in epitaxial strained BiFeO3thin films on LaAlO3 single crystal substrate. In biaxial strained thin films, nanoscale mixtures of the tetragonal-like and rhombohedral-like phases occur with a film thickness above 35 nm. For 10-30 nm ultrathin ones, tetragon...
