High-resolution 3-Dimensional Reciprocal Space Mapping (3D-RSM) has been performed on mixed-phase BiFeO3 (BFO) epitaxial films on (001)-oriented LaAlO3 substrates. Our results demonstrate that 3D-RSM is an effective way to present a structural overview of the different BFO polymorphs, domain variant...
