Preparation of high J c Ba2YCu3O7−y-Ag composite films on SrTiO3 (100) substrates by the dipping-pyrolysis process

Abstract
Superconducting Ba2YCu3O7−y (BYCO)‐Ag composite films with an (Ag/BYCO) molar ratio of 0.2 were prepared on SrTiO3(100) substrates by the dipping‐pyrolysis process through heat treatments at 700–800 °C under a low‐oxygen partial pressure (=2×10−4 atm) followed by O2 annealing. The product films were highly c‐axis oriented and gave sharp rocking curves. High superconducting transition temperature Tc, zero(r) of 89 K and high critical current density Jc (77 K, 0 T) of 1.1×106 A/cm2 were obtained for a 0.9‐μm‐thick composite film heat treated at 770 °C.
