On SrTiO3 single crystal substrate,by using the pulsed electron deposition tech-nique,the high-quality electron doped Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4?δ superconducting film was successfully fabricated. After careful study on the R-T curves of the obtained sam-ples deposited with different substrate temperatures,thicknesses,annealing methods and pulse frequencies,the effects of them on the superconductivity of the films were found,and the reasons were also analyzed. Additionally,by using the same model of the pulsed laser deposition technique,the relation between the target-to-substrate distance and the deposition pressure was drawn out as a quantitative one.
High quality La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 (LCMO) film was deposited via a novel pulsed electron deposition technique on SrTiO3(100) single crystal substrate. The micro-bridge with different widths was fabricated by using electron beam lithography (EBL) technique and their transport properties were studied. For the micro-bridges with width of 2 and 1.5 μm,the insulator-to-metal transition temperature (TP) keeps un-changed compared with the film. For the micro-bridges with width of 1 μm,the TP shifts towards the lower temperature by 50 K. When the width decreases down to 500 nm,the insulator-to-metal transition disappears. The magnetoresistance be-havior of these micro-bridges was studied,and the results show that the low field magnetoresistance (LFMR) decreases and the high field magnetoresistances (HFMR) keep almost unchanged as the width of micro-bridge is reduced.
