The paper presents the structural and magnetic properties of a new non-magnetic biaxially textured substrate based on Ni{sub 100{minus}x}V{sub x} solid-solution for YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}y} tape fabrication. The effective atomic magnetic moment monotonously decreases with the vanadium concentration, causing a corresponding decrease of Curie temperature. The Curie temperature reaches the zero value at about 11.5% of vanadium. The texturing studies revealed that (100)[-001] cube texture can be easily developed up to x = 11 at.%, by a cold rolling process followed by a recrystallization thermal treatment. The X-ray {omega} and {phi} scans have demonstrated that the samples have a good out-of-plane and in-plane texture for the whole solubility range, with FWHM of 7{degree} and 11{degree}, respectively. The correlation between the magnetic and structural anisotropy was also studied.
