Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) films were synthesized at a high deposition rate of 180 nm/s (660 μm/h) by laser chemical vapor deposition (laser CVD) using Zr(dpm)4 and Y(dpm)3 precursors. Morphology of YSZ films changed from columnar to cone structure with increasing deposition rate. YSZ films with the columnar structure showed significant (200) orientation.
