Abstract

ABSTRACTHigh temperature superconducting Y1Ba2Cu3O7−x(YBCO) thin films have been grown on GaAs substrates by in situ laser deposition with a double buffer layer of yttrium-stabilized ZrO2(YSZ)/Si3N4. A barrier layer using a combination of YSZ/Si3N4 was used to grow high quality YBCO thin films without the degradation of the GaAs during YBCO film deposition. Strongly c-axis oriented superconducting YBCO thin films with a zero resistance temperature of 85.5 K and a critical current density of 1.9×103 A/cm2 at 77 K have been obtained. The electrical properties of the YBCO thin films were mainly dependent on YSZ buffer layer deposition condition.
