We report on the structural and optical properties of Fe2CrO4+d epitaxial films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on MgAl2O4 (001) as a function of ?. The average Fe valence can be correlated with the out-of-plane lattice parameter and the extent of light absorption in the infrared spectral region. Over-oxidized films (0 < d < 0.5) exhibit reduced lattice parameters and suppressed infrared absorption. We discuss the behavior of a novel infrared transition at ~0.6 eV in stoichiometric Fe2CrO4 films deposited on MgAl2O4 (MAO) at or above 400 °C. This research provides new insight into the atomic structure, optical processes, oxidation states, electronic structure, and application potentials of Fe2CrO4+d.
