Description

We have prepared perovskite-type EuNbO3 thin films by a pulsed laser deposition method and examined their magnetic and transport properties. Epitaxial thin films were grown on SrTiO3 (001) and GdScO3 (110) single-crystalline substrates. These films exhibit metallic behavior and ferromagnetism with a Curie temperature (Tc) of 3.6 K. The temperature dependence of electric resistivity shows a kink at Tc, indicating a correlation between Eu2+ 4f localized spins and Nb4+ 4d itinerant electrons. (author)
