Abstract

We have performed an exhaustive study of the phase diagram of Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films using chemical analysis, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction. We show that Raman scattering can provide information regarding impurity phases and oxygen stoichiometry in thin films
