A growth diagram of Lu-Fe-O compounds on MgO (111) substrates using pulsed laser deposition is constructed based on extensive growth experiments. The LuFe 2O 4 phase can only be grown in a small range of temperature and O 2 pressure conditions. An understanding of the growth mechanism of Lu-Fe-O compound films is offered in terms of the thermochemistry at the surface. Superparamagnetism is observed in the LuFe 2O 4 film and is explained in terms of the effect of the impurity hexagonal LuFeO 3 (h-LuFeO 3) phase and structural defects. © 2012 American Physical Society.
