Abstract

Molecular beam epitaxy of ultra thin films of Bi2Sr2CuO8-(2201 phase) is realized on the surface of SrTiO3 (100) and LaAlO3 (100) at the substrate temperature of 573 K, using 10-5Pa of NO2 as an oxidant. The film epitaxially grown from the surface of the substrate has identical in-plane lattice constant to the substrate itself. Such a growth can only be obtained on the substrate with similar lattice constant to those of the material to be formed. The crystallinity of the film strongly depended on the sequence of the metal depositions and the oxidation process. In the case of the Bi system, the elementary unit of the epitaxial growth has proved to be the subunit of the perovskite structure (Sr-Cu-Sr). The structure of the film grown on a substrate with large mismatch (MgO) is also discussed.
