{ital In} {ital situ} laser deposition was used to fabricate YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 6.8} (YBCO) films on metallic substrates. With a buffer layer, YBCO films were strongly {ital c}-axis oriented. {ital T}{sub {ital c}} = 83 K and {ital J}{sub {ital c}}= 4000 A/cm{sup 2} at 77 K were obtained for a 0.5 {mu}m YBCO film with a 0.15 {mu}m yttrium-stabilized ZrO{sub 2} buffer layer. There was negligible interdiffusion occurring at the interfaces. The {ital n} value of YBCO films ranged from 1.4 to 1.5.
