LaAlO3

LaAlO3 monocrystal substrate

Lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO₃) – LAO is a versatile material known for its perovskite structure and rhombohedral crystal system at room temperature. It boasts excellent thermal stability, a high melting point, and strong chemical resistance. These properties make it suitable for various applications. Additionally, LaAlO₃ is widely used as a substrate for thin film growth in the fabrication of electronic devices, especially in high-temperature superconductors and oxide electronics.
