Abstract
We report on the growth of SrCuO2 thin films prepared by RF reactive m agnetron sputtering onto (100) SrTiO3 substrates. Epitaxial (001) SrCu O2 films are obtained at 550-degrees-C in a sputtering pressure of 1-1 0m Torr of Ar. Off axis x-ray analysis reveals perfect in plane orderi ng. We find, depending on the preparation conditions, changes in the c -axis value, which may be due to a change in the Sr-Cu-O concentration s. These modifications are correlated to changes in the resistivity of the films.
