Film growth in pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is described as a process of sorption of ablated species on the substrate surface. Film growth rate and composition are qualitatively analyzed as a function of laser fluence and ambient gas pressure. As an example, analysis of the film composition is carried out for BiSrCaCuO and PbZrTiO pulsed laser deposited films.
