Abstract
Epitaxial thin films of doped lanthanum manganites were grown on CeO2 buffe r layer with faced targets (FT) magnetron sputtering technique. TEM, X-ray, AFM, RHEED revealed high quality of obtained films as well as smooth surfa ce and a perfect film-buffer interface. The film properties were found to b e dependent on the buffer layer treatment history. In order to compare obta ined films with those grown directly on single crystalline substrates, we t ested ones deposited on (001)NdGaO3. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science BY All right s reserved.
