Difficulties in fabricating single-phase infinite-layer (IL) type Sr1−xLaxCuO2 thin films with good superconducting characteristics hampered the investigation of basic properties such as the pairing symmetry of this class of electron-doped superconducting cuprates. A new synthesis approach to obtain single-phase Sr1−xLaxCuO2 (x = 0.10−0.175) thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on KTaO3 and SrTiO3 substrates will be presented. The IL phase is obtained after oxidation of the as-deposited oxygen-deficient Sr1−xLaxCuO2−δ films having a 2√2ap× 2√2ap× c structure (ap, c represent the perovskite subcell parameters). An increased stability of the IL phase for the entire studied La doping range (x=0.10-0.175) was achieved by applying this synthesis approach. Superconductivity was obtained for the x = 0.15−0.175 films, with the highest transition temperature Tc,zero = 17 K for x = 0.15. This result indicates a shift of the superconducting region towards a higher La doping level as compared to previous studies. For the Sr1−xLaxCuO2 films grown on BaTiO3/SrTiO3, superconductivity was observed for x=0.15 only when the BaTiO3 buffer layer is relaxed, following an in-situ annealing step, confirming that tensile strain is required in order to induce superconductivity in the Sr1−xLaxCuO2 films.
