Development of a stress measurement for pulsed laser deposition of BaTiO3 — •Jörg Premper, Dirk Sander, and Jürgen Kirschner — Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik, Weinberg 2, D-06120 Halle

The structural analysis of BaTiO3 monolayers on Fe(001) reveals unexpected structural relaxations near the interface and a minimum thickness for polarisation was deduced from theory to be 2 unit cells [1]. Structural relaxation and onset of polarization are expected to induce characteristic signatures of both interface and film stress of this system. To measure these stresses, we set up an optical 2-beam crystal curvature measurement, which allows stress measurements during pulsed laser deposition of BaTiO3. We use a scanning mirror for the homogeneous ablation of the BaTiO3 target to avoid a rotary UHV-feedthrough of a rotating target. First results on the stress measurements during PLD of BaTiO3 are presented, which indicate the feasibility of reliable stress measurements. This is a comforting result in view of the plasma bloom of the ablation process hitting the thin crystal, where one might have expected a detrimental disturbance on the optical curvature measurement.
