    Notes: We report on the epitaxial growth and structural properties of Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 (PZT) thin films and of epitaxial heterostructures containing metallic DyBa2Cu3O7 (DyBCO) and ferroelectric PZT layers grown using an off-axis rf reactive sputtering technique. On (100) and (110) SrTiO3 substrates, tetragonal (001) and (011) epitaxial Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 films have been obtained. Extensive characterization on (001) PZT films using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy reveal a very high degree of structural quality, and very smooth surfaces with a root-mean-square roughness of 3 A(ring) for a 0.5 μm×0.5 μm scan on a 1000 A(ring) thick film. TEM studies on DyBCO–PZT structures reveal sharp and clean interfaces without traces of intermixing. Primary dislocations are observed at the DyBCO–PZT interface, which do not propagate through the PZT layer. [101]-type dislocations are also seen, possibly related to subgrains in the PZT layer, and they show an extended strain field throughout the PZT layer. The possible relation between these structural defects and the nonlinear current–voltage characteristics observed in DyBCO–PZT–Au structures is discussed. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The critical current densities Jc of Chevrel phase wires with niobium as an antidiffusion barrier were measured in magnetic fields up to 24 T. At 20 T and 1.9 K, Jc reaches 5.4×108 A/m2 and decreases slightly down to 3.1×108 A/m2 at 24 T. A wire with a 20% superconducting cross section has been successfully drawn and its overall critical current density Jcov exceeds 100 A/mm2 at 1.9 K up to a magnetic field slightly above 20 T. This demonstrates the ability of Chevrel phase wires to be used in high magnetic field applications. Moreover, some parts of the coil have certainly higher Jc, since Jc is very often limited by a thermal excursion of the entire coil. The effective upper critical field μ0Hc2*, deduced from the magnetic field dependence of Jc, is too low compared to the expected bulk value, indicating that superconducting properties at the grain boundaries are still degraded. If the bulk μ0Hc2 can be restored at the grain surfaces, Jcov should be higher than 100 A/mm2 up to at least 30 T. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report the superconducting properties of Nd1+xBa2−xCu3O7−δ thin films deposited by dc magnetron sputtering from stoichiometric Nd1Ba2Cu3O7−δ and off-stoichiometric Nd1.12Ba1.88Cu3O7−δ targets. Highly epitaxial c-axis oriented samples with thicknesses ranging from 5 to 100 nm were obtained on SrTiO3(100) substrates from both targets. A suppression of screw-dislocation mediated growth for off-stoichiometric films is observed by STM, resulting in smooth surfaces with roughness of 2–3 nm on a 1 μm2 area. The effects of the deposition conditions on the structural and superconducting properties are investigated and discussed in relation to the Nd–Ba substitution in the Nd1+xBa2−xCu3O7−δ system. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Summary After formulating nonlinear kinetic stability equations for curved and twisted rods, these are used for the solution of static and kinetic lateral buckling problems as well as for linear and nonlinear stability analysis of parametrically excited vibrations of circular arches.

    Notes: Abstract.  With the overall critical current density, J c, remaining low for PbMo6S8, the addition of 0.3 at.% Sn noticeably improved the performance. The enhancement occurs despite the presence of excess Pb and a slightly suppressed T c. The increase in J c can be attributed to a better homogeneity with respect to the chemical composition of the samples, which may be as a consequence of Sn substitution in the lattice. Detailed calorimetric investigation of undoped PbMo6S8 showed a T c distribution down to 9 K evidenced by a smearing of T c. This may be due to a progressive degradation of the sample quality leading to a plausible off-stoichiometry. High-resolution Auger electron spectroscopic experiments suggest a variation in composition indicating excellent correspondence with the specific heat data. However, no such deviation was detected for the Sn-doped samples and therefore the observed raise in J c. The results are discussed in conjunction with oxygen, lead and tin incorporated PbMo6S8.

    Notes: Abstract.  A direct observation of the grain-boundary phases for several well-characterized hot-pressed PbMo6S8 samples were made by Auger electron spectroscopy. The surface elemental concentrations are completely different when compared to its bulk composition. The thickness of this altered composition is in the range 100–200 AÅ gradually increasing with increase in hot-pressing temperature. Also, evidence of segregation of impurities, such as carbon and SiO x , to the grain-boundaries were noticed for some of the samples. Calorimetric experiments show a continuous broadening and a reduction in amplitude of the specific heat anomaly at T C. This in terms of superconducting volume fraction indicates a T C distribution in the range 9–15 K. Such an observation can be related to the local inhomogeneities with respect to the ternary composition, i.e., a deviation from ideal stoichiometry, PbMo6S8. The results are discussed in conjunction with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. By considering the grain-boundary phases and the calorimetric observation of inhomogeneities, a plausible explanation is given for the low critical current densities in these materials.

    Notes: Abstract We report on the epitaxial growth of BaCuO2 infinite layer (stabilised with CO3 groups) thin films by rf magnetron sputtering on (100) SrTiO3 and (100) LaAlO3. Excellent (001) films with c∼4Å are obtained at 540 °C in a sputtering atmosphere of 1–10 mTorr of Ar+O2 with some addition of CO2. Off axis x-ray analysis reveal perfect in plane ordering and a tetragonal structure with a=b∼3.96 Å. For these deposition conditions the resistivity at room temperature is of the order of several Ωcm and exhibits a strong semiconductor-like behaviour. When the deposition temperature is increased to 660 °C, a supercell along the c axis appears with a period of about 8Å. After an in-situ annealing of these films in 7 Torr of oxygen at 500 °C, ϱ(300K) falls to 800μΩcm. The resistance versus temperature curve reveals then a metallic behaviour and a superconducting transitions with onsets between 10–40K.
