Abstract
Using the in situ laser ablation deposition technique, we have grown thin superconducting films of the “2212” phase of the Bi compound (i.e. Bi 2Sr 2Ca 1Cu 2O 8+y). Depending upon the precise growth conditions, various kinds of defects can be observed in such films: disturbed surface morphology, intergrowth of various phases and crystalline defects which can degrade the transport properties of the films. The nature and density of these defects in the films have been studied, and possible ways to obtain defect free epitaxial BiSrCaCuO thin films are presented and discussed.
