TLDR
In this paper, the magnetic anisotropy of epitaxial colossal magnetoresistance (EGM) films on SrTiO3 substrates is dominated by the strain or magnetocrystalline anisotropic effects depending on the orientation of the film.
Abstract
The magnetic anisotropy of epitaxial colossal magnetoresistance films on SrTiO3 substrates is dominated by the strain or magnetocrystalline anisotropy depending on the orientation of the film. While the magnetic anisotropy of (001) films is determined by magnetocrystalline anisotropy, that of (110) films is determined by magnetoelastic effects. Furthermore while the microstructure in the thin films has a significant effect on the coercive field, it has a correspondingly negligible effect on the magnetic anisotropy. We find a roughening surface morphology with increasing thickness that is more pronounced in (110) oriented films and can be attributed to the growth kinetics.

Microstructure, magnetic, and low-field magnetotransport properties of self-assembled (La0.7Sr0.3MnO3)0.5:(CeO2)0.5 vertically aligned nanocomposite thin films

TL;DR: The results suggest that the growth of functional oxide in another oxide matrix with vertical heteroepitaxial form is a promising approach to achieve new functionality that may not be easily realized in the single epitaxial phase.

Giant negative magnetoresistance in perovskitelike La2/3Ba1/3MnOx ferromagnetic films.

TL;DR: The samples show a drop in the resistivity at the magnetic transition, and the existence of magnetic polarons seems to dominate the electric transport in this region.

Mechanical properties of thin films

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that very large stresses may be present in the thin films that comprise integrated circuits and magnetic disks and that these stresses can cause deformation and fracture to occur.

Use of misfit strain to remove dislocations from epitaxial thin films

TL;DR: In this article, a simple theoretical model and experimental observations made on deposits of Ga(As, P) on GaAs, suggest that it is desirable for the film thickness to be small.
