摘要：
Rare earth compounds are interesting from both a theoretical point of view and for their applications. That is the reason why determining their optical and electrical properties deserves special attention. In this article, we present the conditions we obtained homogenous CeNi5 thin films of nanometer thicknesses. To achieve this goal, our method of choice was laser-induced vaporization, using short and modulated impulses, with electro-optical tuning for the quality factor. The layers that were deposited at a single laser burst had thicknesses between 1.5 and 2.5 nm, depending on the geometry of the experimental setup.
