AbstractMetalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) has the potential of emerging as a major technique for the fabrication of high temperature superconductor devices. In this paper, we present preliminary results of in-situ deposition of Y-Ba-Cu-0 thin films (Tc = 79K) by rapid isothermal processing assisted MOCVD on BaF2/silicon substrates.

High-T c superconducting thin films of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 were grown in-situ on (100) SrTiO 3 substrates by Nedymium:yttrium aluminum garnet [Nd:YAG] laser ablation. The effects of the substrate temperature on the transition temperature, microcrystalline structure and surface morphology of the films were discussed. Best results were obtained in the 730°–770°C range. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that these films were highly c-oriented with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate surface. At the optimum substrate temperature, a very smooth morphology with only a few small particles were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The zero resistance temperature of these films were ≥ 90 K with a narrow transition width and the ac susceptibility measurement also gave the same result. The highest critical current density obtained at 77 K and zero magnetic field was 3.8 × 106 A/cm 2.

ABSTRACTThin films of YBCO were prepared using a mass-spectrometer controlled coevapora-tion/MBE process with atomic oxygen. Under the conditions of low pressure, necessary for mass-spectrometer rate control, it is shown that an atomic oxygen beam source can be utilized in order to grow high quality thin films of YBCO as well as multi-layer structures involving YBCO and Y2O3. Values of Tc = 88.5 K and Jc = 6–106 A/cm2 at 77 K were determined for a strip with a width of 10 μm of YBCO deposited on a LaAlO3 substrate. Film structure is analyzed by XRD and rocking curve measurements. Magnetic characterization of films and multi-layer structures are reported.
