Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is widely used in combinatorial material science, as it enables rapid fabrication of different composite materials. Nevertheless, this method was usually limited to small substrates, since PLD on large substrate areas results severe lateral inhomogeneity. A few technical solutions for problem have been suggested, including the use designs masks, which were meant prevent inhomogeneity thickness, density, and oxidation state a layer, while only composition allowed...
