Abstract
In order to establish the fabrication method of high-Tc REBa2Cu3Oy (RE123) films by feasible simple system, we fabricated the RE123 films on SrTiO3 substrate by molten hydroxide method in low temperature and 1-atm air. Obtain films of RE-123 (RE = Gd, Eu, Sm) fabricated at low temperature of 525°C show a c-axis orientation of RE123 and REBa2Cu4O8 phases. Moreover, the Nd-123 films show a bi-axial orientation of Nd123 single phase completely above 425°C. The Tconset of Nd123 film fabricated at 525°C denotes 67.1K which was drastically lower compared with previous study of Nd123 single crystalline film, and Tconset of Nd123 films degrade with decreasing fabrication temperature. We can consider that the Nd/Ba substitution was caused by lowering the fabrication temperature.
