The structures of Pb(Zr{sub x}Ti{sub 1{minus}x})O{sub 3}/YBCO heterostructure with different thickness of PZT sublayer were investigated. The lattice parameter, C of YBCO layer is obtained to be c = 11.686 {+-} 0.001 {angstrom}, being of 0.2% larger than that of the bulk one. The lattice parameter, C of PZT layer is c = 4.116 {+-} 0.001 {angstrom}, indicating that the composition of the sample is Pb(Zr{sub 0.48}Ti{sub 0.52})O{sub 3}. The misorientations of YBCO/PZT sublayers were observed in the samples B and D. The effect of the crystalline quality of the STO substrate on the quality of the YBCO and PZT epitaxial films was discussed.
