Ce-doped EuO: Magnetic properties and the indirect band gap

Abstract: We have prepared and investigated thin films of EuO doped with the rare-earth element cerium. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy were used to determine the quality of these films prepared by pulsed laser deposition. Ce doping leads to an enhanced Curie temperature near 150 K, close to that seen for oxygen-deficient EuO1−x. However, the magnetization of Ce-doped EuO exhibits differences from that observed for Gd-doped and oxygen-deficient samples. The high-… Show more

“…We have successfully developed a method to prepare EuO films based on pulsed laser deposition as referenced in [23,24]. XRD patterns show the stacking planes of the films are mostly aligned with the (200) lattice planes, same as reported from prior works.…”

“…More details about the sample preparation can be found elsewhere. 23,24 To prevent the degradation of the EuO 1-x films when exposed to air, some films were protected by a Pt capping layer deposited in situ. The magnetic properties of both oxygen-deficient and stoichiometric EuO were examined using a physical properties measurement system (PPMS) from Quantum Design.…”
