Abstract
  • Epitaxial LaRh₁/₂Mn₁/₂O₃ thin films have been grown on (001)-oriented LaAlO₃ and SrTiO₃ substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The optimized thin film samples are semiconducting and ferromagnetic with a Curie temperature close to 100 K, a coercive field of 1200 Oe, and a saturation magnetization of 1.7μB per formula unit. The surface texture, structural, electrical, and magnetic properties of the LaRh₁/₂Mn₁/₂O₃ films was examined as a function of the oxygen concentration during deposition. While an elevated oxygen concentration yields thin films with optimal magnetic properties, slightly lower oxygen concentrations result in films with improved texture and crystallinity.
