Preparation of Superconducting Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu Thin Films by Chemical Deposition.

摘要

The scientific revolution in superconductivity has been driven by the discovery of many metal oxides that exhibit this unique property at unusually high temperatures. At the time of submission of this article, the material showing the highest transition temperature is Tl2Ca2Ba2Cu3O10 (2223) which is superconducting below 12k. For many potential applications of high Tc superconductors uniform thin films are required. There are a number of methods that might be employed for the preparation of such a film. These include electron beam (e-beam) coevaporation and sequential evaporation, sputtering, ion beam deposition, molecular beam epitaxy, laser ablation, spray, and spin-on techniques. (js)
