摘要
This article reviews high-quality epitaxial film growth of layered cobalt oxides by reactive solid-phase epitaxy (R-SPE) with topotactic ion-exchange methods. Epitaxial film of Na0.8CoO2 was grown on a (0001)-oriented alpha-Al2O3 substrate by R-SPE using CoO film as the starting material. The Na0.8CoO2 epitaxial films were converted into high-quality epitaxial films of Sr0.32Na0.21CoO2 and [Ca2CoO3](x)CoO2 by topotactic ion-exchange methods. The Sr0.32Na0.21CoO2 film exhibited better stability against moisture than that of the Na0.8CoO2 film, while it retained the good thermoelectric properties of Na0.8CoO2. The [Ca2CoO3](x)CoO2 film exhibited a high electrical conductivity of 2.95 x 10(2) S/cm and a large Seebeck coefficient of +125 mu V/K at 300 K.
