Abstract

Solution-based techniques have been examined as potential low-cost processes for manufacturing YBCO coated conductors. YBCO films prepared from metal trifluoroacetate precursors have achieved performance levels equaling or exceeding that of vapor deposited films with the same thickness on CeO₂/YSZ(sc) substrates. J_c's of 4.5 MA/cm² and 2 MA/cm² have been achieved in 0.4 μm thick YBCO films on CeO₂/YSZ(sc) and CeO₂/YSZ/CeO₂/Ni substrates, respectively. Textured Gd₂O₃ buffer layers have been deposited on deformation textured Ni substrates in a reel-to-reel process. The performance of YBCO films deposited on substrates containing the Gd₂O₃ seed layers is comparable in performance to YBCO films grown on all vacuum deposited buffer layers.
