Abstract
Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ(Bi2212) superconducting thin films were prepared by the Pechini sol–gel method using nitrates as reactants. The precursor sol was deposited on LaAlO3(100) and MgO(100) single-crystal substratesviathe spin-coating method. The results revealed that the phase formation temperature region of the pure Bi2212 phase and perfectly epitaxial Bi2212 films deposited on LaAlO3substrates was significantly expanded to 8 K, indicating an improvement in crystallization of Bi2212 films. In addition, the phase formation temperature region of the pure phase andc-axis-grown Bi2212 films deposited on MgO substrates was reduced to 5 K because of the deterioration of epitaxy of Bi2212 films sintered at higher temperature. According to the investigation, theTc,onsetvalues of Bi2212 films grown on MgO substrates were about 92 K. Meanwhile, the optimalTc,onsetvalue of Bi2212 superconducting films grown on LaAlO3substrates rose to 96 K.
