Abstract

Lu and Tang claim that the spin-coated films in our study are not epitaxial. They assume that all of the background intensity in the x-ray pole figures of the spin-coated materials is due to randomly oriented grains. There is no evidence for randomly oriented grains in the 2θ x-ray patterns. The background intensity in the pole figures is also comparable to the background from the single-crystal substrates, which is inconsistent with their assumption.
