Abstract

EuO thin films with the cubic NaCl structure were fabricated by a sol-gel technique. The composition and crystal structure of the films were investigated as a function of firing temperature. The preparation of the stock solution and the coating and firing of the films are described. The firing of the gel film and the reduction of the Eu2O3 phase are also discussed.
