Description
CeO2 buffer layers were prepared by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, (MOCVD) on (100) yttria-stabilized zirconia, (YSZ) substrates. The as-grown films exhibited (100) preferential orientation. The film surface consisted of grains with feature sizes of several 10's of nm. Post-deposition annealing at 800-1100 C improved the surface roughness and the crystalline quality. The surface was analysed by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The crystallinity was investigated by X-ray diffraction, (θ/2θ-scan, rocking curves) and pole figures. (orig.)
