本文利用高分辨率透射电子显微镜(TEM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对高J_c外延生长YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x超导薄膜的微观结构进行了观察分析.研究发现,薄膜外延程度的好坏与生长工艺和衬底表面的完整性有直接的关系.实验结果表明(100)SrTiO₃单晶衬底上外延生长YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x超导薄膜中影响临界电流密度J_c的因素主要有界面过渡区、缺陷和不同的外延取代等.     

漫谈第二代高温超导带材

正一、高温超导材料的问世超导现象是1911年荷兰低温物理学家昂内斯(H.Onnes)发现的,他在莱顿实验室研究液氦温度下的物性时,发现汞在极低的温度下,其电阻突然减小为零,而且去掉外电场后,电流可以持续流动。后来经过长时间多次实验验证,他确定发现了一个新的现象——并将此现象称之为超导现象,从此揭开了超导研究的帷幕。1933年德国物理学家     

SUPERCONDUCTING PROPERTIES AND STRUCTURAL PERFECTION OF EPITAXIAL YBa2Cu3O7-x THIN FILMS

The photoconductivity spectra of semimagnetic semiconductor Cd_0.7Mn_0.3Se have been measured at 50-300 K and in the wavelength range of 5500? to 8000?. It is found that the energy gap of Cd_0.7Mn_0.3Se changes with the temperature linearly, and the temperature coefficient (dE_g/dT) is about -7×10^-4 eV/K. A photoconductivity peak which is related to Mn²⁺ is also found. This peak is located around 1.85 eV, nearly unshifted with variation of the temperature. The possible transition mechanisms in Cd_1-xMn_xSe have been discussed in the light of group theory and crystal field theory, and the results are in good agreement with experiments.     

SUPERCONDUCTING PROPERTIES AND STRUCTURAL PERFECTION OF EPITAXIAL YBa2Cu3O7-x THIN FILMS

High quality epitaxial YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x thin films have been succcessfully prepared by dc magnetron sputtering deposition, on (100) and (110) aligned SrTiO₃, LaAlO₃ and yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) substrates. The films showed zero resistance around 90 K and had a J_c (at 77 K, H=0) over 10⁶A/cm². It was found that superconducting properties and structures of the films were strongly dependent on oxygen pressure and substrate temperature. The epitaxial structure of the films have been studied by X-ray diffraction. Rutherford backscattering and channeling spectroscopy, X-ray double-crystal diffraction and transmission election microscopy. The experimental results demonstrated that the epitaxial YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x films had excellent superconducting properties and quite perfect structure.     

Ar离子注入YBa2Cu3O7—x超导薄膜中微结构变化的透射电子显微镜研究

Ar离子注入YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-x)超导薄膜后,不仅会引起样品超导转变温度T_c和临界电流密度J_c的下降,还会使样品的正常态由金属型变为半导体型。透射电子显微镜观察发现在小剂量(<5×10~(12)Ar/cm~2)注入情况下,样品的晶格结构几乎不受影响。随着注入剂量的增加,晶格损伤越来越严重,最终变成非晶态。对实验结果的分析表明,Ar离子注入引起YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-x)薄膜超导性能的变化主要与O原子子晶格的无序化过程有关。

高TcYBa2Cu3O7/PrBa2Cu3O7超晶格的微结构分析

利用高分辨透射电子显微镜对高T_c YBa₂Cu₃O₇/PrBa₂Cu₃O₇(以下简称为YBCO/PrBCO)超晶格的微结构进行了系统的观察分析,高分辨电子显微象(HREM)表明YBCO/PrBCO超晶格层与层之间具有清晰的衬度,没有界面互扩散,通过HREM象观察,发现衬底表面的原子台阶和缺陷使薄膜最初1—2个晶胞层中出现层错等缺陷,但这些缺陷并没有向薄膜内部扩展,当薄膜厚度超过几个晶胞层后,其结构趋于完整。另外,在HREM照片上还可看出YBCO/PrBCO超晶格的调制周期存在波动,波动范围相当于一个晶胞层厚度,实验结果表明,利用YBCO/PrBCO超晶格研究CuO₂面的二维超导电性时,临界温度T_c和临界电流密度J_c的变化不仅与二维CuO₂面的失耦程度有关,还会受到各种晶格缺陷的影响,对YBCO/PrBCO超晶格和超薄YBCO膜的输运特性进行理论解释时,必须考虑衬底和晶格缺陷造成的影响。     

离子注入对YBa2Cu3O7-x薄膜超导性能的影响

本文报道了Ar和F离子注入对YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x超导薄膜电学性能及结构的影响,通过X射线衍射和电阻温度关系的测量研究了离子注入后YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x薄膜T_c,J_c和结构的变化。实验中发现,在低剂量注入情况下,T_c和J_c随着注入剂量的增加而下降。但是,上临界温度和X射线衍射谱却几乎保持不变。当Ar离子的注入剂量达到1.2×10¹³Ar/cm²时,样品发生金属一半导体相交。当注入剂量大于1.2×10¹³Ar/cm²时,样品的体超导性能基本上完全消失了,X射线衍射峰的强度也有所减弱,最终发生了晶态-非晶态相变,室温电阻率增加了好几个数量级。讨论了超导性能变化及金属一半导体相变的物理起因。
