Interface microstructures of BaTiO3/LaAlO3 grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) are studied using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Interface dislocations in BaTiO3/LaAlO3 have been shown to be directly linked up with the 90° domain boundaries in BaTiO3. This association is a result of strain relief due to a phase transformation when cooled down from the growth temperature. The Burgers vector of the interface dislocations is 〈010〉.
