AbstractSuperconducting TI-Ba-Ca-Cu-O(TBCCO) films with zero resistance temperatures above 100K have been prepared on (001)MgO single-crystal substrates by the combination techniques of spray pyrolysis and Tl-diffusion. The as-sprayed Ba-Ca-Cu-O films and the sintered TBCCO superconducting bulks were wrapped in Au foil and heated in oxygen at temperatures ranging from 890 to 920°C and cooled to room temperature by furnace cooling. Highly c-axis oriented superconducting films were obtained and their average thicknesses were about 5-10 μm. The characteristics of TBCCO films by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electrical property are discussed.

AbstractResearch has been performed on the use of chemical spray pyrolysis for depositing films of YBCO. The effects of reagent concentration, deposition rate, substrate temperature and substrate type were investigated. Films from less than 2 to more than 10 microns thick were deposited on single crystal strontium titanate, polycrystalline alumina and type 304 stainless steel.

Highly oriented superconducting thick films of Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+x have been prepared by low cost spray pyrolysis technique. Aqueous solution containing nitrates of Bi, Sr, Ca, and Cu in the atomic ratio of 2:2:1:2 is sprayed on MgO (100) substrates which are kept at elevated temperature. After annealing in air near the melting temperature, highly oriented films with c-axis perpendicular to the substrate are obtained. The films show a sharp superconducting transition with zero resistance at 85 K. The transport critical current density of the film at 77 K and zero field is of the order of 4000 A/cm 2.

We report on the superconducting properties of TlBa2Ca2Cu3O9−y (Tl-1223) thick films grown on smooth and rough Ag substrates. Thallium-free precursor films of the type Ba2Ca2Cu3Ag0.37O7 were deposited on Ag substrates using a spray-pyrolysis technique followed by post-thallination in a two-zone furnace. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed the presence of c-axis aligned Tl-1223 films and some degree of local in-plane texture (often referred to as a colony microstructure). The microstructure of the Ag surface dictates the growth behavior of Tl-1223 films. The transport critical-current densities (Jc) for Tl-1223 films grown on smooth and rough Ag substrates were ∼ 65,000 A/cm2 and ˜ 37,000 A/cm2, respectively, at 77 K and zero field. The films grown on smooth Ag substrates were strongly linked and had good in-field properties with a Jc value of ∼104 A/cm2 at 77 K and 0.5 T.

AbstractThe strong facet-dependent performance of glass-supported CeO2 thin films in different applications (catalysis, smart windows, etc.) has been the target of diverse fundamental and technological approaches. However, the design of accurate, cost-effective and scalable methods with the potential for large-area coverage that produce highly textured glass-supported CeO2 thin films remains a technological challenge. In the present work, it is demonstrated that under proper tuning conditions, the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis technique enables one to obtain glass-supported polycrystalline CeO2 films with noticeable texture along both the (100) and (111) directions, as well as with randomly oriented crystallites (no texture). The influence of flow rates, solution molarity, and substrate temperature on the texture and morphological characteristics, as well as optical absorption and Raman response of the deposited films, is evaluated. The obtained results are discussed on the basis of the combined dependence of the CeO2-exposed surfaces on the thermodynamic stability of the corresponding facets and the reaction kinetics, which modulate the crystallite growth direction.
