A-axis oriented superconductive YBCO thin films. Growth mechanism on MgO substrate. [Y-Ba-Cu-O]

Abstract

The growth mechanism of a-axis oriented YBCO thin films has been studied by TEM. At 650degC, a disordered cubic perovskite is first formed with a[sub p]parallela[sub MgO], then a strained tetragonal a-axis oriented perovskite is observed, with c=3a[sub p], slightly misoriented with respect to MgO and showing a marquetry-like contrast. At 750degC, a [1anti 10] axis oriented perovskite is formed whose lattice exhibits a rotation with respect to MgO lattice, but also a tilting of the [CuO[sub 2]][infinity] layers with respect to the substrate plane. Introduction of oxygen at this temperature leads to an a-axis oriented orthorhombic perovskite and involves the formation of a poorly crystallized interface layer. The almost perfect a-axis orientation is achieved after slow cooling (30') down to room temperature, the lattice of the ''123'' phase being disoriented with respect to the MgO lattice. (orig.).
