Abstract

Abstract: A comparative study of effect of substrate temperature (Ts) on the critical current density (Jc) in YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) superconducting films is reported. YBCO superconducting films were fabricated by using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. The substrate temperature was ranged from 720 to 800 oC in order to find its optimum value for depositing YBCO films. Results of structural measurements the YBCO films showed that the lattice parameter c were depended on the substrate temperature. The largest value of lattice parameter c calculated from Xray diffraction patterns was obtained for the YBCO film deposited at 780 oC. More interestingly, the critical current density of the YBCO films measured at 65 K also depended on the substrate temperature. The highest value of critical current density of ~ 5.7 MA/cm2 was also found at the YBCO film deposited at 780 oC. Consequently, the optimum value of Ts of 780 oC might be concluded.
