Abstract

The thickness dependence was studied for the critical current density (Jc) of YBa2Cu3O7−x(YBCO)+BaSnO3 (BSO) nanocomposite films. These films showed a significantly reduced decline of the Jc with thickness, especially at high magnetic fields. For example, a 2 μm thick YBCO+BSO film had a Jc∼3×105 A/cm2 at 5 T as compared to a typical Jc of 2.4×103 A/cm2 at 5 T for a 300 nm thick YBCO film. The thick YBCO+BSO films maintained high Tc (>88 K) and had a high density (2.5×1011/cm2) of continuous BSO nanocolumns that likely contributed for the observed Jc enhancements.
