Abstract

NdBa 2Cu 3O 7-δ (NdBCO) films were grown on rolling-assisted biaxially textured substrates (RABiTS) via pulsed laser deposition. c-Axis-oriented epitaxial NdBCO films with high performance were obtained under optimal deposition conditions. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the NdBCO film grown on RABiTS has a clear interface with a CeO 2 cap layer and a nearly perfect lattice structure. The NdBCO film exhibits higher T c of 93.7 K and better in-field J c in magnetic fields and at all field orientations, compared to pure YBCO films.
