Abstract

Continuous deposition of Y-123 tapes was performed by ion-beam-assisted deposition (IBAD) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. YSZ template films were deposited by IBAD on Ni-based alloy tapes with tape shifting speeds of 0.1-0.3 m/h. They were uniformly coated with an in-plane mosaic spread of 12-13 degrees in 5 m length. In order to overcome the low deposition rate of the IBAD process, large area ion sources with inductively coupled discharge plasma were applied. Y-123 films were deposited by PLD on the YSZ templates with a tape shifting speed of 1.0 m/h. The degradation of Y-123 targets for the PLD process was effectively restricted by combined motion of rapid rotation and linear shifting. I/sub c/ of 84.0 A and J/sub c/ of 0.76MA/cm/sup 2/ were obtained at 77 K, 0 T in the length of 1.0 m when the in-plane mosaic spread for the Y-123 film was 7 degrees. I/sub c/ of 35.0 A and J/sub c/ of 0.25MA/cm/sup 2/ were obtained in a 4.6 m long sample at the length of 4.0 m, when the in-plane mosaic spread for the Y-123 film was 11 degrees.
