Epitaxial yttria-stabilized zirconia on biaxially-textured (001) Ni for YBCO coated conductor

TL;DR: The epitaxial YSZ layer grown on the Ni (001) surface was used as a single buffer layer for a high temperature superconducting coated conductor architecture, yielding YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 films with critical current density of 1 MA/cm 2 at 77 K as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical currents, magnetic relaxation and pinning in NdBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ films with BaZrO 3 -generated columnar defects

TL;DR: In this article, the critical current density Jc and the magnetic relaxation properties have been studied for a set of NdBa2Cu3O7−δ (NdBCO) films doped with BaZrO3 (BZO) nanoparticles to form columnar defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabrication and physical properties of large-area HgBa2CaCu2O6 superconducting films

TL;DR: In this article, uniform zero-resistance Tc values of HgBa2 CaCu2 O6 (Hg-1212) superconducting thin films with their dimensions as large as ½ inch × ½ inch have been achieved using a cation exchange process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epitaxial growth of MgO/TiN multilayers on Cu

TL;DR: In this article, the growth of epitaxial MgO/TiN multilayer films on (001) Cu has been investigated and shown to be a diffusion barrier to both copper and oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upper-critical fields of YBa2Cu3O7- delta epitaxial thin films with variable oxygen deficiency delta.

TL;DR: 3D scaling showed better convergence than the 2D scaling, and the transitions were not adequately described by either scaling for [ital T][sub [ital c]] off the 90-K plateau; it is speculated that this is due to an extrinsic broadening of the transitions.
