Influence of the reaction conditions on the formation of Tl(Re)-Ba-Ca-Cu-O superconducting thin films by thallination in open system

Rhenium avoids air degradation of the target as well as of precursor thin films during the preparation of high temperature Tl-based superconductors. Addition of Re has been used during synthesis of oriented Tl(Re)-Ba-Ca-Cu-O films. High temperature superconducting Tl-based thin films were prepared by a two step method combining RF magnetron sputtering and ex-situ thallination. Precursors with a composition of Re_0.1Ba₂Ca₂Cu₃O_x were deposited on a CeO₂ buffered R-plane sapphire substrate. The sputtered films were prepared at room temperature in an Ar atmosphere. The thallination of the precursor films was performed in a one zone configuration, where both the pellet and precursor film were kept at the same temperature. The thallination temperature varied in the range of 850–880°C and samples were held for 30, 45 and 60 min at this temperature in a flowing oxygen atmosphere. Besides Tl-2212, X-ray diffraction reveals the possibility of also preparing the Tl-2223 phase, which was until now not reported in a Re doped form.

Formation of ZnGa_2O_4 films by multilayer deposition and subsequent thermal annealing

The Ga203/ZnO multilayer films are deposited on quartz substrates by magnetron sputtering, the thickness values of Ga203 layers are in a range of 19 nm-2.5 nm and the thickness of ZnO layer is a constant of 1 nm. Formation of spinel ZnGa204 film is achieved via the annealing of the Ga203/ZnO multilayer film. The influences of original Ga203 sublayer thickness on the optical and structural properties of Ga203/ZnO multilayer films and annealed films are studied. With the decrease of the thickness of Ga203 sublayer, the optical band-gap of Ga203/ZnO multilayer film decreases, the intensity of UV emission diminishes and the intensity of violet emission increases. The annealed film displays the enlarged optical band gap and the quenched violet emission. UV fluorescence bands are observed from Ga203 and ZnGa204.

Field and temperature dependence of intergranular hysteresis in YBa2Cu3O7

We have studied the variation of low field magnetization hysteresis in YBa₂Cu₃O₇ as a function of the maximum magnetic field applied during a hysteresis cycle (1 G<H _max<7.3 G) and also as a function of temperature (77 K<T<95 K). The remnant magnetization is studied as a function ofH _max andT and the measured dependences are explained using the extended critical state model. The potential of this technique as a contactless method of probing the temperature dependence ofJ _c is discussed.

Fabrication of low phase transition temperature vanadium oxide films by direct current reactive magnetron sputtering and oxidation post-anneal method

Vanadium oxide thin films were deposited on ordinary glass substrates by direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering from a vanadium metal target and subsequent oxidation annealing. The deposition and annealing parameters were given in detail. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The phase transitions of films were observed by measuring their electrical and optical property variations at different temperature. The results indicated that the films fabricated had a semiconductor–metal phase transition temperature of about 30 °C.     

Effect of annealing temperature on some physical properties of MgB2 by using the Hall probe ac-susceptibility method

A commercially available powder of MgB₂ is used as starting material for the examination of the influence of the annealing temperature on the properties of this intermediate-T_c superconductor. We performed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Hall ac-susceptibility measurements as a function of temperature and ac-field amplitude on samples annealed at 650, 750, 850 and 950 °C. The imaginary part of ac-susceptibility measurements is used to calculate both the inter-granular critical current density, J_c(T_p) and density of pinning force, α_j(0). It was observed that all T_c, J_c(T_p) and α_j(0) exhibit a non-monotonic behavior on the annealing temperature range studied in this work. T_c is measured to be 39.85±0.02 K and J_c(T_p) is estimated to be as high as 60 A/cm² at 39.2 K for the sample annealed at 850 °C. The peak temperature, T_p, in the imaginary part of the ac-susceptibility curves shifts to lower temperatures with both decreasing the annealing temperature and increasing the amplitude of the ac-magnetic fields. A comparison of the experimental ac-susceptibility data with theoretical critical-state models that are currently available is performed. SEM investigations showed that the grain size increases, and the grain connectivity improves when the annealing temperature increases up to 850 °C. The possible reasons for the observed changes in transport, microstructure and magnetic properties due to annealing temperature are discussed.     

Optical study of Ba(Mn_xTi_(1-x)O_3) thin films by spectroscopic ellipsometry

Stoichiometric Ba(Mn_xTi_(1-x)O_3) (BMT)thin films with various values of x were deposited on Si(111)substrates by the sol-gel technique.The influence of Mn content on the optical properties was studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry(SE)in the UV–Vis–NIR region.By fitting the measured ellipsometric parameter(Ψand)with a four-phase model(air/BMT+voids/BMT/Si(111)),the key optical constants of the thin films have been obtained.It was found that the refractive index n and the extinction coefficient k increase with increasing Mn content due to the increase in the packing density.Furthermore,a strong dependence of the optical band gap Egon Mn/Ti ratios in the deposited films was observed,and it was inferred that the energy level of conduction bands decreases with increasing Mn content.

Magnetic anisotropy of epitaxial iron films on single-crystal MgO(001) and Al_2 O_3 (11\bar 20) substrates

The ferromagnetic resonance and magnetization of single-crystal thin (27–100 Å films grown in the (110) direction are measured in the temperature range 20–400 K. The films are prepared by molecular-beam epitaxy on single-crystal sapphire substrates with a Nb(110)buffer layer. The angular dependence of the parameters of the ferromagnetic resonance spectrum is observed to have a 180° character when the static magnetic field is rotated in the plane of the sample. It is established that this angular dependence can be described on the assumption that the lattice distortions are essentially trigonal. A comparative analysis of previous data for Fe(001) films with the data for Fe(110) films shows that the source of the corrections to the cubic anisotropy constant is the characteristic distribution of the strains along the thickness of the film.

Strongly enhanced flux pinning in the YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-X) films with the co-doping of Ba TiO_3 nanorod and Y_2O_3 nanoparticles at 65 K

YBa2Cu3O7-x(YBCO) films with co-doping BaTiO3(BTO) and Y2O3 nanostructures were prepared by metal organic deposition using trifluoroacetates(TFA-MOD). The properties of the BTO/Y2O3co-doped YBCO films with different excess yttrium have been systematically studied by x-ray diffraction(XRD), Raman spectra, and scanning electron microscope(SEM). The optimized content of yttrium excess in the BTO/Y2O3co-doped YBCO films is 10 mol.%, and the critical current density is as high as ~ 17 mA/cm2(self-field, 65 K) by the magnetic signal. In addition, the Y2Cu2O5 was formed when the content of yttrium excess increases to 24 mol.%, which may result in the deterioration of the superconducting properties and the microstructure. The unique combination of the different types of nanostructures of BTO and Y2O3 in the doped YBCO films, compared with the pure YBCO films and BTO doped YBCO films, enhances the critical current density(JC) not only at the self-magnetic field, but also in the applied magnetic field.

Low-energy(40 keV) proton irradiation of YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-x) thin films:Micro-Raman characterization and electrical transport properties

To investigate the damage profiles of high-fluence low-energy proton irradiation on superconducting materials and related devices, Raman characterization and electrical transport measurement of 40-keV-proton irradiated YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-x)(YBCO) thin films are carried out. From micro-Raman spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction studies, the main component of proton-radiation-induced defects is found to be the partial transition of superconducting orthorhombic phase to the semiconducting tetragonal phase and non-superconducting secondary phase. The results indicate that the defects induced in the conducting CuO_2 planes, such as increased oxygen vacancies and interstitials, can result in an increase in the resistivity but a decrease in the transition temperature TCwith the increase in the fluence of proton irradiation, which is confirmed in the electrical transport measurements. Especially, zero-resistance temperature TC_0 is not observed at a fluence of 10~(15)p/cm~2.Furthermore, the variation of activation energy U_0 can be explained by the plastic-flux creep theory, which indicates that the plastic deformation and entanglement of vortices in a weakly pinned vortex liquid are caused by disorders of point-like defects. Point-like disorders are demonstrated to be the main contribution to the low-energy proton radiation damage in YBCO thin films. These disorders are likely to cause flux creep by thermally assisted flux flow, which may increase noise and reduce the precision of superconducting devices.
