For epitaxial films, a critical thickness (t<sub>c</sub>) can create a phenomenological interface between a strained bottom layer and a relaxed top layer. Here, we present an experimental report of how the t<sub>c</sub> in BiFeO<sub>3</sub> thin films acts as a boundary to determine the crystalline phase, ferroelectricity, and piezoelectricity in 60 nm thick BiFeO<sub>3</sub>/SrRuO<sub>3</sub>/SrTiO<sub>3</sub> substrate. We found larger Fe cation displacement of the relaxed layer than that of s ...[more]
