Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films are deposited onto severval kinds of substrates by electron beam evaporating in a high vacuum system. After the heat treatment at 850–890°c for 1hr the Y-Ba-Cu-O films on the BaF2 substrates show superconducting behaviors with the midpoint Tc around 87K and zero resistance temperature at 77K. The composition and stucture analysis of these films have been studied by AES, XRFS and x-ray diffraction.

We report here the preparation of the superconducting Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O thin films on SrTiO 3(100) substrates by a Nd:YAG laser, which provides laser pulses with wavelength of 1.06µm and pulse width of 200ns. After the heat treatment at 850°C for half an hour in oxygen flow, the samples exhibit superconductivity with the zero resistance at 66.8K and the onset temperature around 84K. X-ray diffraction analyses show that the samples have the preferred orientation with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate.

ABSTRACTThin films of aluminum nitride were grown epitaxially on Si(111) by ultra-high-vacuum dc magnetron reactive sputter deposition. Epitaxy was achieved at substrate temperatures of 600° C or above. We report results of film characterization by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman scattering.

A planar dc magnetron sputtering device was used to prepare high T c and high J c YBCO thin films. Both single crystal and polycrystal thin films were successfully grown on (100) oriented LaAlO 3 substrates. Zero resistance temperature T c0 = 92.3 K and critical current density J c (0) = 3.82 × 106 A/cm 2 at 77 K was obtained. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

We have successfully fabricated high-quality YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−x (YBCO) thin films grown on sapphire with epitaxial Yttria-Stabilized ZrO 2 (YSZ) buffer layer by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction and Auger depth profile were used to characterize these thin films. The values of zero-resistance temperature Tco and critical current density J c (at 77 K) of c-axis oriented YBCO thin film with 500 Å-YSZ buffer layer were 91 K and 2.2×106 A/cm 2, respectively. The Auger depth profile showed that no obvious diffusion occurred between the buffer layer and the YBCO film. The influence of substrate temperature and thickness of buffer layer has been investigated.

BSCCO thin films with T c (R = 0) higher than 80 K have been routinely prepared using a simple and reliable technique in which we completely electron beam evaporated weighted amounts of bulk pellets. The films were grown on MgO single crystal (100) substrates and showed, after an ex-situ annealing at high temperatures (840–880° C) for several hours, a strong preferential orientation with the c-axis perpendicular to the plane of the substrate. The films were characterized by Θ − 2Θ X-ray diffraction and EDS analysis and by paraconductivity and critical current measurements.

In this letter, we describe results obtained via laser ablation to fabricate Tl 2 Ba 2 Ca 2 Cu 3- O 10 superconducting thin films using a two-step process. We found that the zero-resistance temperatures are up to 121 K, while the onset temperatures are up to 125 K. The T c and J c are mainly determined by a non-contact new technique for high-T c films. The typical critical current density, J c , is about 106 A/cm 2 at 77 K. X-ray diffraction showed that the superconducting thin films are nearly single 2223 phase and are highly oriented.

AbstractShape memory alloy TiNi thin films on GaAs have been investigated. A series of TiNi compositions were electron beam deposited on GaAs initially as thin multilayers of Ti and Ni. The intermetallic phase of TiNi was formed by annealing and complete intermixing of the multilayers at 370oC. The intermetallic phases were investigated with X-ray diffraction techniques. The annealing kinetics and resistivity investigations were carried out in order to minimize the sheet resistance of the intermetallic phase. TiNi Schottky barriers on GaAs have been fabricated and their performance will be reported. Additional investigations on surface morphology using the energy dispersive spectroscopy as well as TEM investigations show the correlation between microstructure, intermetallic phase formation and sheet resistance.

Correctly c-axis oriented HgBa 2 CaCu 2 O 6+δ thin films have been produced on (100) MgO single crystal substrates and characterized. Pulsed laser deposition has been exploited to deposit Hg-free Re-doped precursor which then underwent synthesis in evacuated and sealed quartz tubes. X-ray diffraction pattern of the precursor target shows the expected composition of oxides. Scanning electron microscopy analysis have been performed on the surface of the precursor film. Hg-1212 films have been analyzed by θ-2θ Bragg-Brentano X-ray diffractometry. The patterns show little contributions in composition of Hg-1223 phase. The films exhibit a transition temperature >120 K with zero-resistance at around 115 K.

In this study, investigations on MAX phase Ti3SiC2 formation to n-type 4H-SiC substrates and its ohmic-behaved are reported. Ti-Al layers were deposited onto SiC substrates at room temperature by magnetron sputtering in high vacuum system. Thermal annealing at 1000°C in Ar atmosphere were performed to allow interdiffusion processes. X-ray diffraction and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy reveal that a Ti3SiC2 contact, in perfect epitaxy with 4H-SiC substrate, is so-obtained. In situ annealing experiment underlines the evolution of Ti-Al contact microstructure versus temperature. The evolution of contact system from Schottky to Ohmic behaved is observed by I-V measurements for annealing temperatures larger than 700°C.
