In fl uence of oxygen vacancy ( V O (cid:129)(cid:129) ) distribution on the polarization properties of SrRuO 3 (SRO) / BiFeO 3 (BFO) / SRO capacitors was investigated. Our thin- fi lm experiments and density function theory (DFT) calculations reveal that a strong attractive interaction between V O (cid:129)(cid:129) and the bottom BFO / SRO interface gives rise to an V O (cid:129)(cid:129) -rich defective layer for as-deposited capacitors. The distribution with the V O (cid:129)(cid:129) -rich layer is gradually broken by an electrical training and fi nally becomes symmetric, leading to a polarization-hysteresis change from a markedly rounded to a typical ferroelectric loop. This study demonstrates that defect engineering utilizing V O (cid:129)(cid:129) is an effective approach to control the polarization-related properties of BFO in capacitor form.
