Possibility of in situ orthorhombic I growth in YBa2Cu3Oy thin films

Description

We have succeeded in the true in situ preparation of superconducting YBa2Cu3Oy thin films with high Tc without post-oxygenation using opposed-targets magnetron sputtering. In spite of no post-oxygenation, these films showed zero resistance Tc as high as 88K with a relatively sharp transition width ΔTc(90%-10%) of 2K. This suggests the possibility of in situ forming the orthorhombic I phase during growth. (orig.)
