Three-dimensional microobjects are fabricated by the controlled release of inherently strained SrRuO₃/Pr_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃/SrRuO₃ trilayers from SrTiO₃(001) substrates. Cantilevers and rolled-up microtubes with a diameter of 6-8 µm are demonstrated. The etching behavior of the SrRuO₃ film is investigated and a selectivity of 1:9100 with respect to the SrTiO₃ substrate is found. The initial and final strain states of the rolled-up oxide layers are studied by x-ray diffraction on an ensemble of tubes. Relaxation of the sandwiched Pr_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ layer towards its bulk lattice parameter is observed as the major driving force for the roll-up of the trilayers. Finally, microdiffraction experiments reveal that a single object can represent the ensemble proving a good homogeneity of the rolled-up tubes.
