Stabilization of Nanostructured-oriented CaCuO2 Thin Films: A Descriptive Study | Chapter 05 | New Trends in Physical Science Research Vol. 1

 The current research focuses on the growth characteristics of CCO films on these two substrates, which result in differing strains due to a lattice mismatch between the substrate and CCO. Nanostructured c-axis oriented thin films of CaCuO2 were produced on single crystalline (110) NdGaO3 and (100) LaAlO3 substrates using a pulsed laser deposition process. The structural characterisation demonstrates that the formed CaCuO2 films on both substrates are single phase and orientated (00l). An energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy investigation ensures the film's stoichiometric growth. The nanostructured morphology of the CCO film is confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The nanostructured c-oriented thin film seen in the SEM pictures is the result of island growth. These nanostructured CCO films could be ideal thermoelectric material candidates.
