Formation of High-Tc YBa2Cu3O7-δ Films on Y2BaCuO5 Substrate

Abstract
[[abstract]]High-Tc superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-δ (1237) films have been successfully prepared on green Y2BaCuO5 (2115) ceramic substrate. The films have been formed by RF sputtering and screen printing with post annealing at 925°C. Regarding superconducting features, the sharp resistivity drop with Tc onset around 95 K (midpoint 84 K) and 99 K (midpoint 89 K) has been observed for RF sputtered and printed films respectively. Both films show the excellent adhesion towards the 2115 substrate. Powder X-ray diffraction profiles indicate a majority of 1237 phase with preferred orientation for RF sputtered thin film.[[fileno]]2010102010138[[department]]物理
