Abstract

Neutron powder diffraction experiments have been carried out on two interesting perovskite compounds, Sr₂RuO₄ (K₂NiF₄ structure) and SrRuO3 (distorted perovskite), both of which are used as substrates for the growth of high-temperature superconducting thin films. The powder diffraction data have been refined at high and low temperatures to obtain lattice parameters and the lattice mismatch between these compounds and YBa₂Cu₃O₇ over a wide temperature range is found to be good. No evidence has been found for any lattice distortions between 5 and 973 K in Sr₂RuO₄ and between 100 and 300 K in SrRuO₃.
