Superconducting Y-Ba-Cu-O thick films with preferred c-axis orientation were obtained by a screen-printing method. Thick films with preferred c-axis orientation appeared only when the substrate material was YSZ, the film thickness was around 10 ..mu..m, and the film was fired at 980 /sup 0/C for 6 min. The preferred c-axis orientation was caused by an interface reaction between the Y-Ba-Cu-O thick film and the YSZ substrate. The superconducting characteristics of the thick film were T /sup zero//sub c/ = 89 K and J/sub c/ (77 K) = 7 A/cm/sup 2/ .
