Exfoliation techniques of oxide membranes using water-soluble sacrificial layers have attracted attention as a method for fabricating free-standing membranes without substrate-induced strain. However, these techniques have not yet been applied to fluoride-based materials, which are expected to be used in next-generation devices. In this study, we attempted to fabricate free-standing cerium fluoride membranes by combining the exfoliation of cerium oxide films with a topochemical fluorination reaction using a sacrificial layer. After transferring the film to a polymer sheet, we carried out the reaction under an Ar atmosphere. Analysis of the changes in diffraction peaks confirmed the formation of free-standing cerium fluoride films.
