Abstract
Solution-based techniques have been examined as potential low-cost processes for manufacturing YBCO coated conductors. YBCO films prepared from metal trifluoroacetate precursors have achieved performance levels equaling or exceeding that of vapor deposited films with the same thickness on CeO/sub 2//YSZ(sc) substrates. J/sub c/'s of 4.5 MA/cm/sup 2/ and 2 MA/cm/sup 2/ have been achieved in 0.4 /spl mu/m thick YBCO films on CeO/sub 2//YSZ(sc) and CeO/sub 2//YSZ/CeO/sub 2//Ni substrates, respectively. Textured Gd/sub 2/O/sub 3/ buffer layers have been deposited on deformation textured Ni substrates in a reel-to-reel process. The performance of YBCO films deposited on substrates containing the Gd/sub 2/O/sub 3/ seed layers is comparable in performance to YBCO films grown on all vacuum deposited buffer layers.
