Abstract
SrRuO3 thin films have been grown on MgO substrates using pulsed laser ablation deposition. The orientation of the SrRuO3 films changes from the [001] or [110] direction normal to the substrate surface to become predominantly [100] as the thickness of the SrRuO3 increases from 50 to 360 nm. This leads to a change in the magnetic response of the SrRuO3 films and to a dramatic improvement in the superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3O7-delta films grown on top of the SrRuO3 layer. The domain structures and the surface morphology of SrRuO3 films grown on MgO chan-e as the thickness of the film increases. The 50 nm thick SrRuO3 film grown on an MgO substrate nucleates as rectangular islands, 0.5 to 1 mum in diameter. As the thickness increases to 185 rim, oriented grains similar to1 mum in size are observed. We have noted a different microstructure for the SrRuO3 thin films grown on SrTiO3 substrates. The 185 nm thick SrRuO3 film grown on a SrTiO3 substrate shows a step like growth pattern.
