Understanding the interplay of ferromagnets and superconductors requires high quality interfaces. To this end, we have fabricated heterostructures of the cuprate superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) with the metallic ferromagnet La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) via pulsed laser deposition on SrTiO3 (STO) (001) and (LaAlO3)0.3(Sr2TaAlO6)0.7 (LSAT) (001) substrates. By varying the YBCO thickness from 1.7-13.6 nm while keeping the LSMO thickness at 12 nm, we have studied the interplay between ferromagnetism and superconductivity in the in-plane transport and magnetic properties of the bilayers. X-ray reflectivity data indicate the presence of a 2-3 nm thick interfacial layer between the LSMO and YBCO layers in all heterostructures. In-plane transport measurements exhibit suppression of the superconducting transition temperature from bulk YBCO values. Magnetometry measurements indicate high LSMO saturation magnetization values for samples grown on STO substrates and even higher (bulk-like) magnetization for bilayers grown on LSAT substrates. Together these results indicate that the interdiffused layer is largely attributed to a modified YBCO layer.
