Abstract:
Metalorganic aerosol deposition is a suitable technique for the synthesis of a wide range of complex oxides thin films. The present paper reports on growth of high quality multilayered structures on the base of functional colossal magnetoresistive manganites layers separated by insulating and metallic oxide spacers. (La0.5Sr0.5CoO3-La0.7Sr0.3MnO3)10 and (SrTiO3-LaMnO3)15 structures were epitaxially grown on STO(001) and MgO(001) substrates. The evidence for a superlattice formation is confirmed by well-formed satellite peaks in X-ray diffraction and X-ray reflection. The measured periodicities of these superlattices were found to be in good agreement with simulation experiments. The magnetotransport properties of superlattices are presented.
