Description

The multilayered structure of bismuth cuprate superconducting film (Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2OX/Bi2Sr2Cu1OX) affects the supercell consisting of several unit cells as well as the lattice constant of each layer. A relatively thick film of epitaxial Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2OX (Bi-2212) was prepared to determine its crystal structure and to compare with a reference film of ∼1000 A thickness and a multilayered structure. As the Bi-2212 film grew continuously, the film was rotated by 32deg around the surface normal with respect to the initial layer of Bi-2212. The angle can be interpreted according to the coincidence site lattice (CSL) with Σ 17 and 18. (author)
