Popis: To achieve low ac losses in applied ac fields, YBa2Cu3Ox (YBCO) filaments were created on a RABiTS buffered substrate through solution inkjet deposition. A metal organic decomposition (MOD) solution was placed into an inkjet dispenser and filaments of widths of 100 mum and 0.8 mm were deposited on the substrate at a spacing of 50 to 100 mum. Each sample, which had a width of 1 cm and a nominal length of 4 cm, was placed in a perpendicular ac field and the ac losses were measured thermally as a function of the field strengths up to 100 mT and at frequencies between 60 Hz and 120 Hz. Samples with inkjet filaments had a high coupling loss. This coupling between filaments may extend along the entire sample length because removal of the conductor ends did not reduce the coupling loss contribution. Reduction in ac loss was observed in samples with laser-scribed filaments that were made from the same MOD solution.
