Abstract
Flat films, high quality insulating layers and adequately superconducting via contacts are basic elements for high T c device fabrication. We studied the influence of the process parameters of laser deposition on the occurrence of droplets and outgrowths in YBaCuO films. The droplet density is minimal when a laser fluence below about 1.0 J cm −2 is used. The outgrowth density decreases with increasing laser pulse rate or decreasing deposition temperature. High quality flat films were obtained with a rate of 10 Hz and at a temperature of 720 °C. Wet chemical etching and etching with an Argon ion source were used for structuring multilayers with SrTiO 3 as an insulating layer. Smooth edges were obtained with an argon gun. Bromine and EDTA etching are not adequate techniques for fabricating controllable well-defined edges. Cross-overs, via contacts and coils were prepared.
