Abstract
Abstract We have synthesized middle-entropy type REBCO (ME-REBCO) and high-entropy type REBCO (HE-REBCO) superconducting thin films with BaCeO3 artificial pins by fluorine-free metal organic deposition (FF-MOD) method and evaluated their crystallinity and superconducting properties. The c-axis orientation of crystals was confirmed by XRD analysis for all thin films. The superconducting transition temperatures in all films were over 90 K. STEM observation revealed that the crystal lattice of HE-REBCO was slightly distorted compared to a normal GdBCO film. This distortion is expected to be a “backlash” in the crystal and contribute to an increase in the allowable amounts of artificial pins. The critical current densities and flux pinning force densities at 77.3 K were enhanced by Ce doping, indicating that BaCeO3 artificial pins were introduced into the FF-MOD ME-REBCO and HE-REBCO films.
