Abstract

Disorder and strain introduced into sputtered “Nb 3Ge” films by mechanical polishing slightly lowers the onset temperature and/or very markedly broadens the width of the superconducting transition. The structural damage is reversible and annealing restores the superconducting behavior of the film very nearly to its initial state.
