In situ formation of superconducting YBa2Cu3O7/sub -//sub x/ thin films using pure ozone vapor oxidation

  • 1. University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455

Description

Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7/sub -//sub x/ thin films have been prepared by coevaporation using an ozone vapor jet as an oxygen source. Films exhibiting zero resistance at 82 K have been fabricated in situ under high vacuum conditions using substrate temperatures of 700 0C without a post-evaporation anneal in oxygen. This process has implications for in situ measurements of fully superconducting surfaces using a variety of probes as well as for the fabrication of devices and structures whose properties are dependent on surfaces and interfaces
