The Thin Films service allows for the fabrication of complex oxide thin films and other heterostructures, through Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD), a technique particularly useful to create films with complex stoichiometry and to grow epitaxial films and heterostructures. Reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) can be used for in-situ characterization. The sputtering technique is also available for metal deposition. Heterostructures combining metals and oxides can be fabricated in a single process.
