Abstract
A new chemical solution deposition method for the epitaxial growth of La 0.66Sr 0.33MnO 3 (LSMO) thin films from metal acetates, acetylacetonates and propionic acid is presented. Using this method, epitaxial LSMO thin films were grown on (001) SrTiO3 (STO) single crystalline substrates in the temperature range from 800 °C to 1100 °C, both in air and in oxygen atmosphere. The LSMO thin films exhibit good structural and electrical properties. The FWHM of the ω-scan for the (002) peak has a mean value of 0.06°. The Curie temperature of the LSMO thin films is about 320 K and 350 K for the annealed in oxygen and air, respectively.
