Thin YBaCuO films have been deposited on ZrO{sub 2}(Y) and SrTiO{sub 3} substrates by a novel ablation method, using a pulsed intense electron beam generated by a pseudospark source. Films with zero resistance around 85 K were grown at substrate temperatures of 820 {degree}C with high reproducibility. X-ray analysis indicates highly textured growth on both substrates. {ital J}{sub {ital c}} values were 6{times}10{sup 6} A/cm{sup 2} at 4.2 K and 1.1{times}10{sup 5} A/cm{sup 2} at 77 K. Because of the high simplicity of the deposition system and the variety of changeable parameters it represents an interesting alternative to existing laser ablation methods.
