TL;DR: In this article, single-crystal films of perovskitelike (La,Ca)MnO3 with very smooth surface were grown epitaxially on (110) NdGaO3 substrates by a simple facing-target sputtering technique.
Abstract: Single‐crystal films of perovskitelike (La,Ca)MnO3 with very smooth surface were grown epitaxially on (110) NdGaO3 substrates by a simple facing‐target sputtering technique. Their in‐plane and out‐of‐plane crystal structures were examined by means of a novel double‐crystal x‐ray diffraction technique. The c axis of the samples lay in the film plane. All rocking curves were found to have a full width at half‐maximum of about 0.01° which is smaller than all reported structure data for ceramic thin films.

TL;DR: In this article, thin films of perovskite-like (La,Ca)MnO/sub /spl delta/with [001] orientation were grown epitaxially on (100) MgO substrates by a simple facing-target sputtering technique.
Abstract: Thin films of perovskite-like (La,Ca)MnO/sub /spl delta// with [001] orientation were grown epitaxially on (100) MgO substrates by a simple facing-target sputtering technique. The as-deposited films already possess a significant low field giant magnetoresistance. Further post-annealing experiments on these samples indicate that the high electrical resistivity is not a prerequisite of the giant magnetoresistance effect.
