N2 - The phase transformations of stoichiometric HfO2 and non-stoichiometric HfOx oxides grown by ion-beam sputtering-deposition during their electron beam crystallization were investigated. It was found that the sequences of crystalline phase formations in stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric oxides are significantly different. An amorphous HfO2 film crystallizes first to form monoclinic α-HfO2 phase nanocrystals and then tetragonal β-HfO2 phase nanocrystals.
