摘要
The effects of film thickness and epitaxial strain on the magnetic properties of commensurate EuO thin films grown on single crystalline (001) yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and (110) LuAlO3 substrates are presented. Magnetic measurements show a reduction in the Curie temperature (T-C) for EuO/YSZ films thinner than similar to 10nm. Additionally, the EuO/LuAlO3 films exhibit a systematically lower T-C than the corresponding EuO/YSZ films. This further reduction in TC is attributed to the effect of biaxial tensile strain arising from lattice mismatch: 0.0% for EuO/YSZ and +1.0% for EuO/LuAlO3. (C) 2013 American Institute of Physics.
