Multilayers for high-Tc superconducting electric field effect devices

摘要

Epitaxial multilayers, consisting of a PrBa2Cu3O7-x buffer layer, ultrathin YBa2Cu3O7-x and SrTiO3, have been grown for application in electric field effect devices. Different analytical techniques indicate a sharp interface between the layers and good dielectric properties of the SrTiO3-layer. First measurements show clear modification of the superconductor's current-voltage characteristics upon applying electric fields of 0.1-1 MV/cm.
