Popis: Metal organic deposition (MOD) process of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− y (YBCO) using metal trifluoro acetate (TFA) precursors is thought to be promising since YBCO films with high J c can be fabricated by this process inexpensively. However it is difficult to maintain high J c throughout long tapes. We have improved I c values and longitudinal I c distribution for a long coated conductor tape by the advanced TFA-MOD method. It was clarified that a humid atmosphere degraded as-coated films. The Ba-poor composition precursor from the 1:2:3 cationic ratio improved J c / I c significantly. As a result, a 86 m long coated conductor was obtained with I c values higher than 200 A/cm-w throughout the tape except for one small region. Almost of the tape has as high I c as 300 A/cm-w and the end-to-end I c × L value was 14 000 Am ( I c = 250 A, L = 56 m).
