Epitaxial growth of BaTiO_3, SrTiO_3 and their superlattices was carried out by the alternating evaporation method using an atomic-layer-epitaxy control system for molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Stable and reproducible control of the chemical composition was achieved by layer-by-layer growth with this system. Both BaTiO_3 and SrTiO_3 were grown epitaxially on SrTiO_3 substrates, and clear oscillations of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) intensity were observed, corresponding to the alternating depositions of BaO and TiO_2 in BaTiO_3 growth. The artificial superlattice with the structure of [(BaTiO_3)_5/(SrTiO_3)_5]_7 was fabricated, and the X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the superlattice was simulated by a step model. Diffraction angles of satellite peaks and the shape of Laue peaks in XRD patterns were consistent with those calculated, indicating that the designed structure was fabricated in the superlattice.
