Popis: | Crystalline CeO 2 as a buffer layer on single crystal yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ) has been deposited in situ at 600–650°C by laser ablation. Following the deposition of CeO 2 , Tl 0.78 Bi 0.22 Sr 1.6 Ba 0.4 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 9 ((Tl,Bi)-1223) amorphous films were deposited on the CeO 2 -buffered YSZ substrate at room temperature. The deposited amorphous films were then wrapped together with an unfired Tl 0.95 Bi 0.22 Sr 1.6 Ba 0.4 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 9 pellet in silver foil. The whole package was finally annealed ex situ in a tube furnace at 790–810°C with flowing argon to crystallize the films. X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows that the annealed films consist of mainly c -axis aligned (Tl,Bi)-1223 phase with a small amount of (Tl,Bi)-1212 phase. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) values of XRD ω-scans at (007) of (Tl,Bi)-1223 phase and (005) of (Tl,Bi)-1212 phase are 0.44° and 0.48° respectively. XRD ϕ-scans on (102) of both (Tl,Bi)-1223 and (Tl,Bi)-1212 phases show an excellent in-plane alignment with FWHM values of 0.44° and 0.54°, respectively. Four-probe transport measurements show superconducting transition temperatures ( T c 's) of 105–109 K depending on the annealing conditions. At 77 K and zero external magnetic field, transport critical current density ( J c ) is in the range of (0.6–1)×10 6 A/cm 2 for samples with thickness of 1.5–1.8 μm. |
