    Notes: Microwave properties of two types of YBa2Cu3 Ox (YBCO) films with different microstructure have been studied at 4.2 K and 6 GHz. One type of film was grown at a constant substrate temperature of 705 °C during the film growth (constant-growth films). The other type of film ws prepared with two-stage process: initial growth at a lower temperature of 630 °C and subsequent higher-temperature deposition at 705 °C (two-stage-growth films). Although both types of film have very similar intrinsic YBCO material properties such as c-axis lattice constant, Tc, and unloaded quality factor Qu at low power levels, quite different microwave properties are observed at high power levels. The two-stage-growth films with small grains less than 100 nm show fairly small power dependence of Qu and resonance frequency on input power up to +10 dBm. On the other hand, the constant-growth films with large grains (∼200 nm) show significant changes in these properties, accompanied by an appearance of asymmetric resonance curves. These results show that the power handling capability of granular YBCO films is mainly affected by the extrinsic film microstructure and that the quality of the grain boundaries causes the difference in power dependence.

    Notes: Double-sided Y1Ba2Cu3Ox films are prepared on MgO(100) substrates for KrF excimer laser deposition and their electrical properties, both direct current and microwave frequencies, are examined. Double-sided Y1Ba2Cu3Ox films show zero resistivity at temperatures higher than 88 K and ρ(300K)/ρ(100 K) higher than 2.7. Using a niobium shield, a double-sided Y1Ba2Cu3Ox films microstrip line resonator at 5.7 GHz shows an unloaded Q value of 2.6×104 at 77 K and 1.1×105 at 4.2 K. These are the highest class of unloaded Q known to be reported for planar-type resonators.

    Notes: In situ epitaxial growth of Bi2(Sr0.6Ca0.4)3Cu2Ox films by ion beam sputtering on cleaved MgO substrates was studied. The crystallographic structures were analyzed by in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction, a four-circle x-ray diffractometer, and a scanning electron microscope. While the epitaxial films on polished MgO substrates commonly showed the fourfold symmetry, epitaxial films having twofold symmetry were grown on cleaved MgO substrates and the films contained two types of equivalently misoriented domains. The epitaxial relationship between these domains and cleaved MgO substrates was such that the b axis of each domain deviated approximately ±13° from [010]MgO where the cleavage steps ran along [100]MgO. The step edges seemed to play an important role in the occurrence of the twofold epitaxial relationship, where the incommensurate modulation tended to align its direction so as to avoid the step edges.

    Notes: Narrow and low-loss YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) transmission lines for use in multichip modules have been attempted to be developed. 18-cm-long YBCO coplanar transmission lines with widths down to 5 μm were prepared by a composite patterning process combining Ar-ion milling and wet-etching. The transmission losses of the packaged 5-, 10-, and 25-μm-wide lines, respectively, were −1.57, −0.85, and −0.55 dB at 20 GHz and 55 K. These values provide similar surface resistances of 0.59–0.80 mΩ at 20 GHz and 55 K. This indicates successful fabrication of a 5-μm-wide YBCO coplanar line without notable extrinsic loss increase resulting from process damage. The attenuation constants of these lines are approximately two orders of magnitude lower than for 10-μm-wide Cu microstrip lines. These results show that the YBCO coplanar lines with widths down to 5 μm have great potential for use in multi-chip modules. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Thin films of the Bi2(Sr,Ca)3Cu2Ox and YBa2Cu3O7−δ system were annealed at 400 °C in a high-density oxygen plasma and its effect on superconducting properties was investigated. After being annealed in the oxygen plasma, their superconducting transition temperatures decreased by about 10 K and 2 K, respectively, and the c-axis lattice constants of these films were also found to decrease as a result of the annealing in the oxygen plasma. These results suggest that excessive oxygen incorporated into the films by the annealing in the oxygen plasma caused the excessive hole carriers, which deteriorated the superconducting transition temperatures of these films.

    Notes: Transition temperature (Tc) control and annealing effects of Bi2.0Sr1.4Ca1.8Cu2.2Oy superconducting thin films implanted by 200 keV Ne+ have been investigated. Tc end points for 0.4-μm-thick Bi2.0Sr1.4Ca1.8Cu2.2Oy films for 0, 1×1012, and 1×1013 ions/cm2 doses are 78, 76, and 54 K, respectively. The ion dose, to achieve a nonsuperconductor for Bi2.0Sr1.4Ca1.8Cu2.2Oy films, is two or more orders of magnitude lower than that for YBa2Cu3O7−x films. The c-lattice constant increases were observed for the implanted films. Moreover, it was confirmed that the superconducting characteristics for the implanted films are recovered by annealing in O2 atmosphere.

    Notes: The work reported here evaluated the correlation between the copper composition and the structural and microwave properties of YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) films deposited on MgO substrates. Detailed x-ray diffraction measurements revealed that the superconducting YBCO phase in the films has a solubility range on the copper-poor composition side. The structure of the YBCO phase depends on copper composition: a lower copper composition is associated with a larger c-axis lattice constant and a decreased degree of orthorhombicity. These structural changes correlated well with increases in normal resistivity, decreases of transition temperature Tc, and increases in microwave surface resistance Rs. The films with less copper composition also show a more gradual decrease in Rs below Tc than do copper-rich films. These results suggest that changes in these properties are closely connected with copper deficiency that can occur more easily when the copper composition is low. The copper composition is, therefore, a crucial factor in developing YBCO films with low microwave loss. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Thin film with a high Tc single phase was prepared on a (100)MgO substrate at a substrate temperature of about 620 °C by coevaporation of Bi2O3, Sr, Ca, and Cu metal. The resistive superconducting transition with onset Tc of 80 K was observed for this film. By post-deposition annealing at 850 °C, the high Tc phase was transformed into a low Tc phase, while films annealed at a higher temperature such as 890 °C maintained the high Tc phase. These results indicated that the high Tc phase can exist only at the high-temperature region (∼890 °C) while the stable phase existing at the low-temperature region (∼850 °C) is the low Tc phase.

    Notes: Epitaxial films of Y-Ba-Cu-O were obtained on a Si substrate, using an epitaxial intermediate layer consisting of BaTiO3(or SrTiO3)/MgAl2O4. MgAl2O4 was epitaxially grown on the Si(100) substrate by chemical vapor deposition. Then, SrTiO3 or BaTiO3 was also epitaxially grown on the MgAl2O4 layer by means of rf magnetron sputtering. Epitaxial Y-Ba-Cu-O films were prepared on BaTiO3(SrTiO3)/MgAl2O4/Si substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. Preparation of an Y-Ba-Cu-O film directly on MgAl2O4/Si was also studied, but only a randomly oriented polycrystalline film has been obtained so far. Resistive superconducting transitions with zero resistance at 65 K on SrTiO3/MgAl2O4/Si and at 70 K on BaTiO3/MgAl2O4/Si were observed.

    Notes: Thin films of the Bi2(Sr1−xCax)n+1CunOy (n=2, 3) system were prepared on (100)MgO substrates by coevaporation of Bi2O3, Sr-Ca alloy, and Cu metal. The lattice constant of the c axis of the low Tc (∼85 K) phase (n=2) decreased with increasing Ca composition x. The superconducting transition temperatures of both the low Tc phase and high Tc (∼110 K) phase (n=3) decreased with increasing x. These tendencies indicated that both the low Tc phase and the high Tc phase have a mutual solubility between Ca and Sr atoms in this Bi system and that the Tc 's of these two phases are related to the c-axis lattice constant.
