Abstract
Effects of vicinal growth in ErBa2Cu307−δ (ErBCO) with one-dimensional nanorods are discussed from their microstructures. BaNb2O6 doped ErBCO films were grown on vicinal substrates with tilted angles of 0°, 4° and 8° by a pulsed laser technique. Surface step structure appeared distinctly with increasing vicinal angles to 8° in images of scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Then, Ba(Er0.5Nb0.5)O3 nanorods continuously grew from the step on vicinal substrate to film surface steps in transmission electron microscopy images of the film. The alignment of one-dimensional nanorods relate closely to film growth morphology.
