Abstract: | Y-Ba-Cu-O films were prepared by low temperature codeposition of three components. The Y and Cu contents were evaporated from metallic sources, while Ba was vacuum-evaporated from Ba, BaO and BaF2 sources in separate codeposition experiments. The lowest temperature at which superconducting YBa2Cu3O x thin films (about 0.5µm thick) preparedin situ was near 500°C. This process enables preparation of superconducting films on various substrates (SrTiO3, MgO, Al2O3, Si) without a buffer layer. Zero-resistance critical temperature was as high as 88 K and the critical current density was 104 A/cm2 at 4.2 K. The morphology of the films was granular with disordered grain orientation, the average grain size being typically 0.5µm. |
