Scalable, epitaxy-preserving transfer of freestanding perovskite and layered oxide membranes with tunable strain

Key Points

• The main goal is to develop a scalable method for transferring freestanding oxide membranes while maintaining their structural integrity.
• Developed techniques for transferring single-crystal transition metal oxide membranes.
• Focused on preserving epitaxy during the transfer process.
• Tested methods for maintaining membrane flexibility and preventing damage.
• Successfully transferred membranes without cracking or wrinkling.
• Demonstrated the ability to tune strain in the membranes.
• Enabled potential applications in flexible and heterogeneous devices.
