Nearly strain-free heteroepitaxial system for fundamental studies of pulsed laser deposition: EuTiO3 on SrTiO3
High quality epitaxial thin-films of EuTiO3 have been grown on the (001)
surface of SrTiO3 using pulsed laser deposition. In situ x-ray reflectivity
measurements reveal that the growth is two-dimensional and enable real-time
monitoring of the film thickness and roughness during growth. The film
thickness, surface mosaic, surface roughness, and strain were characterized in
detail using ex situ x-ray diffraction. The thicnkess and composition were
confirmed with Rutherford Backscattering. The EuTiO3 films grow
two-dimensionally, epitaxially, pseudomorphically, with no measurable in-plane
lattice mismatch.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
