✦ Synopsis

Proton conducting thin films of SrZrO and SrCeO were fabricated by the pulsed laser ablation method using ArF 3 3 excimer laser. The thin films of SrCeO and SrZrO were grown in the [100] direction on the SrTiO (100) substrate and in 3 3 3 the [211] direction on the MgO(100) substrate and on the Al O substrate. The Raman scattering spectra show that the thin 2 3

films grown in the low P contain lots of oxygen ion vacancies compared to bulk crystals.
