dc.description.abstractGrowth of pure phase delafossite CuFeO2 thin films on Al2O3 (00.1) substrates by pulsed laser deposition was systematically investigated as a function of growth temperature and oxygen pressure. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Raman scattering, and x-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed the existence of the delafossite phase. Infrared reflectivity spectra determined a band edge at 1.15 eV, in agreement with the bulk delafossite data. Magnetization measurements on CuFeO2 films demonstrated a phase transition at T-C approximate to 15 +/- 1K, which agrees with the first antiferromagnetic transition at 14K in the bulk CuFeO2. Low temperature magnetic phase is best described by commensurate, weak ferromagnetic spin ordering along the c-axis. (C) 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
