Then we use Pulsed Laser Deposition to grow SrMnO3 films on SrTiO3(001) substrates, we have tried different temperatures of substrate and different oxygen pressures during our experiment. Results show that with deposition temperature above 700 de- gree and oxygen pressure around 5 Pa, SrMnO3 film will grow with good crystallinity. X-Ray dif- fraction and synchrotron radiation X-Ray diffraction are measured here to identify the crystal structure. Epitaxy between film and substrate is confirmed and the orientation between film and substrate is SrMnO (001)//SrTiO (001), also phi scan shows that at in plane there is no rotation 3 3 between film and substrate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of Mn element reveal that in the film Mn have +3 and +4 two valence states, about 90 percentage of all the Mn are +4 valence.
