Abstract
AbstractSuperconducting thin films play a prominent role in applications of superconductivity and provide an essential source for studying physical phenomena. Here, we summarize the activities for iron pnictide thin films with a focus on the German Special Priority Programme from 2009 until today. The quick availability of such films after the discovery of superconductivity in the iron‐based superconductors enabled a number of experiments. After a general introduction and a brief historical overview we focus on film synthesis of iron pnictides by a two‐step method and by pulsed laser deposition, the assessment of their application potential, the upper critical fields in iron oxypnictides of F‐doped LaOFeAs and F‐doped SmLaOFeAs and on superconductivity in Fe/BaFeAs heterostructures.
