Biaxially textured yttria stabilized zirconia buffer layers on rotating cylindrical surfaces

Biaxially textured yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) buffer layers are prepared on rotating cylindrical surfaces by an ion-beam-assisted deposition (IBAD) process. A large fraction of the cylinder surface can be coated at the same time, resulting in an effective deposition rate of 40 nm/h for the whole tube circumference (diameter of the tube 12 mm). The in-plane alignment depends on the total film thickness and the rotation velocity. The best in-plane textures achieved so far with a FWHM value of 27{degree} are sufficient for the preparation of YBaCuO films with critical current densities above 10{sup 5} Acm{sup {minus}2} at 77 K and self fields. {copyright} {ital 1997 Materials Research Society.}
