Abstract:
The effects of NiO nanoparticles addition in YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) superconductors had been investigated. YBCO superconductor powders were prepared by using high purity oxide powders via solid state reaction method. 0.01 0.05 wt.% of NiO nanoparticles were added into YBCO. The critical temperature (Tc) and transport critical current density (Jc) were determined by using four point probe method. The lattice parameters and morphology of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), respectively. Tc of YBCO increased from 84 K to 87 K with 0.02 wt.% of NiO nanoparticles addition. The addition on NiO nanoparticles have significantly enhanced transport critical current density of YBCO by acting as flux pinning centers. YBCO with 0.03 wt.% of NiO nanoparticles performed the highest Jcup to 1265 mA/cm2 among the NiO-added samples. However, excessive addition of NiO nanoparticles in YBCO caused degradation in Tc and Jc.

Abstract:
Interfaces between metal oxides have not been studied as extensively as metal or semiconductor interfaces. Even in magnetic metallic systems, new phenomena are still being discovered, such as giant magnetoresistance, which has been attributed to an interface phenomenon. As general interest in metal oxides increases, researchers are studying a large variety of heterostructures consisting of superconducting oxides, conducting oxides, ferroelectric oxides, magnetic oxides, and optical oxides. As the complexity and level of integration increase, scientists need a better understanding of the interfaces in metal oxide systems. For example, interface issues in grain boundaries in high Tc oxides and in Josephson junctions of the superconductor/normal material/superconductor (SNS) type have been identified as important technological barriers. In heterostructures based on ferroelectric materials, fatigue problems are believed to be associated with the interface between the conducting electrodes and the ferroelectric metal oxides, and with grain boundaries in the ferroelectric materials.In this article we will focus on the interface issues related to YBCO superconductors. We will describe interface phenomena observed in several systems, such as YBCO/metal contacts, YBCO/YBCO grain boundaries, and YBCO/epitaxial metal oxides. From their seemingly universal behavior, we will try to identify the origin of the interface phenomena and will describe some recent efforts to control such phenomena.

Abstract:
Zero-energy Andreev bound states, which manifest themselves in the tunnelling spectra as zero-bias conductance peaks (ZBCPs), are abundant at interfaces between superconductors and other materials and on the nodal surface of high-temperature superconductors. In this review, we focus on the information such excitations can provide on the properties of superconductor systems. First, a general introduction to the physics of Andreev bound states in superconductor/normal metal interfaces is given with a particular emphasis on why they appear at zero energy in d -wave superconductors. Then, specific spectroscopic tunnelling studies of thin films, bilayers and junctions are described, focusing on the corresponding ZBCP features. Scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS) studies show that the ZBCPs on the c -axis YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ (YBCO) films are correlated with the surface morphology and appear only in proximity to (110) facets. STS on c -axis La 1.88 Sr 0.12 CuO 4 (LSCO) films exhibiting the 1/8 anomaly shows spatially modulated peaks near zero bias associated with the anti-phase ordering of the d -wave order parameter predicted at this doping level. ZBCPs were also found in micrometre-size edge junctions of YBCO/SrRuO 3 /YBCO, where SrRuO 3 is ferromagnetic. Here, the results are consistent with a crossed Andreev reflection effect (CARE) at the narrow domain walls of the SrRuO 3 . ZBCPs measured in STS studies of manganite/cuprate bilayers could not be attributed to CARE because the manganite's domain wall is much larger than the coherence length in YBCO, and instead are attributed to proximity-induced triplet-pairing superconductivity with non-conventional symmetry. And finally, ZBCPs found in junctions of non-intentionally doped topological insulator films of Bi 2 Se 3 and the s -wave superconductor NbN are attributed to proximity-induced p x + i p y triplet order parameter in the topological material. This article is part of the theme issue ’Andreev bound states’.

Abstract:
AbstractThis issue of MRS Bulletin provides an overview of the current status of research and development in the area of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) wires. High-temperature oxide superconductors, discovered in the late 1980s, are moving into the second generation of their development.The first generation relied on bismuth strontium calcium copper oxide, and the second generation is based on yttrium barium copper oxide, which has the potential to be less expensive and to perform better.The potential uses of HTS wires for electric power applications include underground transmission cables, oil-free transformers, superconducting magnetic-energy storage units, fault-current limiters, high-efficiency motors, and compact generators.Wires of 10–100 m in length can now be made, but material and processing issues must be solved before an optimized production scheme can be achieved.This issue covers a range of processing techniques using energetic beams, rolling, and laser and chemical methods to form wires with good superconducting properties.

Full text
Abstract:
The sintering characteristics of Y–Ba–Cu–oxide (YBCO)–Agx (x = 0 to 1.2) using thermomechanical analyzer were systematically investigated to understand the sintering mechanism of the metal superconductor composites. The addition of Ag was observed to lower the sintering temperatures, and the apparent densities of the sintered compacts increased with x from 0 to 0.6. A further increase of x above 0.6 decreased the apparent densities of the sintered compacts. The presence of Ag globules in the YBCO–Ag compacts was observed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The apparent activation energies for sintering of the powder compacts were estimated and observed to vary between 900 to 2000 kJ/mol. The formation of AgOx by absorbing oxygen from YBCO and sintering atmosphere possibly controls the sintering and superconducting behavior. Incorporation of Ag into the matrix modifies the weak-link characteristics from superconductor–insulator– normal–superconductor (S–I–N–S) to superconductor–normal–superconductor (S–N–S) type.

Single crystal fibers of A(B11/2B21/2)O3 perovskites type with compositions Sr(Al1/2Ta1/2)O3 (SAT) and Sr(Al1/2Nb1/2)O3 (SAN) were grown successfully for the first time, using a laser-heated pedestal growth (LHPG) technique. Their crystallographic structures were found to be simple cubic perovskite with lattice parameters a = 3.8952 Å (SAT) and a = 3.8995 Å (SAN) that are close lattice matches to the YBCO superconductors. No structural phase transitions or twins have been found, and the average coefficients of the thermal expansion match well with the YBCO superconductor materials. We report that SAT is one of the most promising substrates to date for the epitaxial growth of HTSC thin films suitable for microwave device applications as it has low dielectric constants (K ∼ 11–12, at 100 Hz–10 GHz and 300 K) and low dielectric loss (∼4 × 10−5 at 10 kHz and 80 K), together with lattice parameter matching, thermal expansion matching, and chemical compatibility with the high Tc superconductors (YBCO).

Abstract:
Gold (Au) and silver (Ag) are known to be important contact metals on YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO). Both metals have been used as additives in fabricating tapes of YBCO and Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (BSCCO) materials, and have favorable results in improving not only the flexibility but also the weighted critical currents of the resulting composites. Previous results on superconductor/normal metal/superconductor junctions made using YBCO/Au/YBCO and YBCO/Au/Nb demonstrated that a supercurrent can be induced in the normal metal layers through the proximity effect. Our transmission electron microscopy study of the Au/YBCO interfaces shows a well-bonded interface with no extraneous phases present. Lattice fringes of the (001) plane in YBCO terminated at the interface abruptly. This observation supports previous results of contact resistance of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Both (001) integral steps and multiples of 1/3 (001) steps were observed at the Au/YBCO interface. When the top gold layer was absent locally, surface degradation was observed as the (001) lattice fringes stopped short from the surface by 10 nm. Our results support that Au is a desirable contact metal and a dependable surface passivation material for YBCO.

Abstract:
In recent years, many efforts have been made to fabricate high-Tc superconductor/normal-metal/ superconductor (SNS) Josephson junctions, but no breakthrough has been made. The major difficulties are the poor reproducibility of the junction parameters due to the structural complexity and defects in the barrier layer. Some junctions, such as the one with Co-doped YBCO barrier, have relatively small spreads in properties. However, the value of their normal state resistance Rn is low, which limits their use for many applications. One approach to solve this “low-Rn” problem is to use materials of high resistivity for the barrier layer. PBCO is an insulator near the metal-insulator transition. Doping with Co drives it further into the insulating regime. The lattice constants of PBCO are close to that of YBCO, even closer when doped with Co. Therefore, Co-PBCO may form a high-resistivity barrier which matches with YBCO very well and hence is a potential candidate barrier material.

Ca -doped (x = 0.00, 0.07 and 0.20) epitaxial Y 1-x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ thin films were prepared on SrTiO 3 (100) by PLD technique. The superconducting transition temperature is found to decrease with increasing Ca content. The AC-susceptibility data were used to determine the intergranular critical current density, when varying the field amplitude H AC . The temperature dependence of critical current density was determined from the imaginary part of the complex susceptibility, χ′′(T), using Xing's relation. The results were analyzed in terms of superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) and superconductor-normal-superconductor (SNS) type models.

With area detector X-ray diffraction system, the orientation of superconductor films and their relationships with substrates can be easily examined. For YBCO high temperature superconductor films having complex crystalline orientation relationship fore and after melting process, 2-dimesional X-ray diffraction provides us much more information than common X-ray diffraction. This is very helpful for understanding the peritectic reaction during melting process because the growth mechanism of Y211 crystalline can be explained from its orientation information. Y211 phrase in the film and its orientation relationship with YBCO phase and MgO substrate have been analyzed at first. It is found that Y211 crystalline is well match with both MgO substrate and YBCO parent phase. Then the melting process of YBCO has been discussed from the view of the orientation relationship between each phase.

The effects of nano particles Fe3O4 addition on the superconducting and transport properties of YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) were studied. YBa2Cu3O7-δ superconductor powders were prepared by using high purity oxide powders via solid state reaction method. Nano Fe3O4 with 0.01 – 0.05 wt.% with average size 28 nm was added into YBCO. The transition temperatures (Tc) of the samples were measured by using four point probe method. The critical current (Ic) of the samples has been determined by using the 1 μV/cm criterion from 30 – 77 K. Sample with 0.02 wt.% nano Fe3O4 showed the highest Tc at 87 K. It is interesting to note the same sample also exhibited the highest Jc at 77 K up to 1683 mA/cm2. Nano Fe3O4 has acted as effective flux pinning centers in YBCO. A small amount of nano particles Fe3O4 addition has successfully improved the superconducting and transport properties of YBCO. The excessive addition of nano Fe3O4 (> 0.02 wt.%) suppressed the Tc and Jc. Overall, Jc decreases with increasing temperature (30 – 77 K) as a consequence of thermally activated flux creep. Magnetic impurities normally suppress superconductivity. However, by adding magnetic nano particles, current carrying capacity of superconductors YBCO was enhanced significantly.

Abstract:
The percolation behavior of superconductor-insulator composite, YBa2Cu3O7–δ, and nano SmBa2NbO2synthesized by modified combustion technique was studied. Particle size of nano SmBa2NBO6was determined using transmission electron microscopy. The chemical nonreactivity of nano SmBa2NbO6with YBCO is evident from the X-Ray diffraction study which makes it a suitable nanoceramic substrate material for high temperature superconducting films. A systematic increase in the sintered density, approaching the optimum value of the insulating nanophase is clearly observed, as the vol.% of YBCO in the composite decreases. SEM micrograph showed uniform distribution of nanopowder among the large clusters of YBCO. The obtained percolation threshold is~26 vol% of YBCO in the composite. All the composites below the threshold value showedTC(0)~92 K even though the room resistivity increases with increase in vol.% of nano SmBa2NbO6. The values of critical exponents obtained matches well with the theoretically expected ones for an ideal superconductor-insulator system.

Transparent organic analogues were directionally solidified to investigate, via in situ observation the peritectic reaction occurring in the YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO)-superconductor system. Nucleation and growth of peritectic and properitectic phases were examined with respect to similarities with the solidification of the YBCO superconductor. The selected organic system, salicylic acid-acetamide, turned out to match the requirements concerning crystal shape, small nucleation rate of the peritectic phase on the properitectic phase, existence of stoichiometric phases with no solubility limits, and undercooling ability of the peritectic phase. Several features of YBCO growth which were previously deduced only from metallographic cross sections could be verified by direct observation. The organic analogue system will also be used in the future to improve numerical simulations.

Abstract:
The hysteretic magnetoresistance of granular high-temperature superconductor (HTSC) HoBa2Cu3O7-δ is investigated. Superconductors of the YBCO family with magnetic rare earth elements (Nd, Ho, Er, Sm, Yb, Dy) in place of yttrium are characterized by a significant paramagnetic contribution to the total magnetization. Impact of this paramagnetic contribution on the magnetotransport properties is analyzed using the concept of an effective field in an intergranular medium. Lines of magnetic induction from paramagnetic moments do not concentrate in intergranular boundaries, and, thus, have an insignificant effect on magnetotransport properties of granular HTSC. At the same time, there are strong concentration of magnetic flux in the intergranular boundaries due to Meissner currents and Abrikosov vortices. This magnetic flux compression determines the magnetotransport properties of granular HTSCs, including YBCO with magnetic rare earth elements.

Abstract: The microstructure of YBCO/SrRuO3/YBCO junctions in the edge geometry have been studied by high resolution electron microscopy. Various defects in the YBCO and SrRuO3 films are observed and analyzed. The most striking defects in the c-axis-oriented YBCO film are a-axis particles, which cause bending and interruption of lattice planes as well as high steps and cracks in the subsequent layers. The SrRuO3 layer in the ramp-edge junction region consists of small domains with slightly different orientations. This leads to the formation of steps on its surface and large variation in SrRuO3 thickness. Mechanisms for forming this defective layer are suggested based on the growth mode and the crystal structure of SrRuO3. We find evidence for strain fields at the SrRuO3/YBCO interface. The oxygen deficiency in YBCO caused by this interface strain may to a large part be responsible for the excess resistivity of this junction. In addition to the defective SrRuO3 layer, the occurrence of various defects in the junction area, including Y2O3 and a-axis YBCO particles, seem to be the cause for the wide scatter in the junction electrical characteristics. The formation of steps and large thickness variation in the barrier layer may be the reason for the rather large critical thickness of the SrRuO3 superconductor-normal-superconductor (SNS) junction. In addition to the junction interfaces, the microstructure of SrRuO3/LaAlO3 and SrRuO3/SrTiO3 interfaces have also been studied.

<p>To improve the superconductivity of high temperature YBCO superconductor, it was prepared and examined by MTG (melt-textured growth) process with use of SmBaCuO seed crystal for orientation, additives of Ag and 211 phase for current density and flux pinning, and heat treatment for oxygen absorption. SmBaCuO single crystals were prepared by MTG process with oxygen absorption and analyzed by XRD and Laue technique. It was estimated that optimum value of Y<sub>2</sub>BaCuO<sub>5</sub> (211 phase) contents in the textured YBCO superconductor as flux pinning center was about 20 wt.%. Ag contents have no influence on the critical temperature but have large influence on the critical current density of the textured YBCO. In the YBCO matrix in experiment, 10 wt.% of Y<sub>2</sub>BaCuO<sub>5</sub> was added, the final 211 content of YBCO made by MTG process could reach about 20 wt.% which was the optimum value for the critical current density. The Ag contents in textured YBCO and the effects of Ag on the superconductivity were also examined. A 5x5x2 mm<sup>3</sup> single crystal of SmBaCuO grown by the melted-condensed process was used to be the seed crystal in the preparation of YBCO. It was proved that the orientation of YBCO was the same as the orientation of the SmBaCuO seed. The effect of oxygen absorption of the bulk oriented YBCO was studied and the heat treatment of oxygen absorption would be in flowing oxygen, at 400 for about 24 hours.

The electromagnetic characteristics in YBCO superconductor were studied. Electromagnetic properties of CeO2 doped and undoped YBCO superconductor was evaluated to investigate the effect of pinning center on the magnetization and magnetic shielding. It was confirmed experimentally that a large amount of magnetic flux was trapped in the CeO2 doped sample than that in the undoped one, indicating that the pinning centers of magnetic flux are related closely to the occurrence mechanism of the magnetic effect. It was concluded that the electromagnetic characteristics arose from the interaction between the trapped magnetic flux and weak link of the filament formed in the superconducting bulk.

Abstract:
AbstractMetalorganic deposition (MOD) is an attractive process for low-cost, high-rate deposition of YBa2Cu3O7– (YBCO) films on continuous lengths of biaxially textured metallic templates for second-generation (2G) high-temperature superconductor (HTS) wires.MOD of YBCO films involves four steps:precursor synthesis, coating, decomposition, and reaction.The final films must meet stringent requirements, including high critical current, uniformity across the width and along the length of the textured substrate, and excellent mechanical properties.Achieving these properties has required the development of a metalorganic precursor that produces an intermediate BaF2-based film, which in turn is converted to a high-quality YBCO film.Understanding and controlling the deposition of the metalorganic precursor and its conversion to YBCO are critical to reproducibly manufacturing uniform, high-performance, HTS wires required for commercial applications.This article reviews the issues that must be addressed in the use of MOD for low-cost YBCO film fabrication and summarizes the performance of 2G HTS wires prepared by this manufacturing process.

We report on direct, real-space imaging of the stray magnetic field above a micro-scale disc of a thin film of the high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) using scanning single spin magnetometry. Our experiments yield a direct measurement of the sample’s London penetration depth and allow for a quantitative reconstruction of the supercurrents flowing in the sample as a result of Meissner screening. These results show the potential of scanning single spin magnetometry for studies of the nanoscale magnetic properties of thin-film superconductors, which could be readily extended to elevated temperatures or magnetic fields.

Abstract:
The change in thermodynamic quantities (e.g., entropy, specific heat etc.) by the application of magnetic field in the case of the high-Tc superconductor YBCO system is examined phenomenological by the Ginzburg–Landau theory of anisotropic type-II superconductors. An expression for the change in the entropy (ΔS) and change in specific heat (ΔC) in a magnetic field for any general orientation of an applied magnetic field Ba with respect to the crystallographic c-axis is obtained. The observed large reduction of specific heat anomaly just below the superconducting transition and the observed variation of entropy with magnetic field are explained quantitatively.

Abstract:
A 32 Tesla, all-superconducting user magnet, which consists of two high temperature superconductor YBCO inner coils producing a field of 17 T in an low temperature superconductor Nb3Sn and NbTi outer magnet producing a background field of 15 T, is being developed at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. The YBCO inner coils are pancake-wound with YBCO coated conductor tapes with an interleaved insulation of sol-gel coated stainless steel tapes. The coils are to be cooled directly in liquid helium bath. Heat losses in the windings, such as ac losses during ramping and heat loss in the internal joints, are supposed to be transferred to the coil external surfaces through heat conduction. Thus, thermal conductivity of the coil structure is critical for the internal cooling of the coil and also quench propagation if any. Thermal conductivity measurements were carried out in the radial direction on stacks of alternating YBCO tapes and stainless steel tapes. This paper presents the test results that showed a very low thermal conductivity in the radial direction. For comparison purposes, calculated thermal conductivities in the axial and azimuthal direction are also presented.

Abstract:
To study the solid state and chemical interactions between Y1Ba2Cu3O7-δ and Si, resistivity and X-ray diffraction measurements were carried out on Y1Ba2Cu3O7-δ–Si x compounds with 0<x>0.12. The transition temperature Tc was found to be slightly decreased by Si addition up to x=0.08 and sharply decreased at x=0.10. The superconducting phase incompletely disappeared at x=0.12. The resistivity was increased by Si doping and its behavior was changed from a metallic to an insulator and semiconductor-like nature. All peaks of the orthorhombic phase were still present by increasing the Si ratio and new phases were produced which were indexed as mainly barium silicates. At x=0.12 the orthorhombic phase was greatly decreased and the barium silicate phases were very clearly destroying the superconducting phase. The obtained results are discussed according to the superconductor–semiconductor composite model and with the idea of Bose–Einstein condensation. The superconductor–semiconductor composite as the YBCO–Si system seems to be a key to unlocking some secrets about the mechanisms of high Tc superconductors.

Abstract:
Z-contrast images and electron energy loss spectra (EELS) were obtained from low angle grain boundaries in SrTiO3 and YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO). Z-contrast images are easy to interpret and especially useful for positioning the beam to acquire EELS data from small sample areas [1], because both these techniques can be performed simultaneously.In high-temperature superconductors even a single grain boundary can reduce the critical current by up to four orders of magnitude. The band-bending model can quantitatively explain this phenomenon. YBCO is a hole-doped superconductor with about one hole per unit cell for optimum doping at x close to zero. It has a structure closely related to the perovskite structure, and Z-contrast images have shown that the dislocation cores are made up of similar structural units as in SrTiO3.[2,3] Our EELS measurements show clear evidence for band bending effects around isolated dislocation cores in an undoped 8° low angle grain boundary.

Abstract:
Two-phase polycrystalline powder mixtures of YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) and xBaCuO2 (x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) were prepared by solid reaction. The Rietveld refinements of X-ray powder diffraction data show that BaCuO2 addition was successfully produced in superconductor YBCO and the unit-cell parameters of YBCO reach a maximum at x=0.05. The critical current density (Jc) also reaches a maximum at x=0.05 and then decreases sharply with increasing amount of BaCuO2. The change of Jc as a function of x was found to be similar to those of the unit-cell parameters. The characteristic behavior of Jc may come from the structure-parameter change of YBCO caused by BaCuO2 addition.

Abstract:
YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) coated conductors have wide-ranging potential in large scale applications, such as, superconducting maglev trains and superconducting electric cables, but low current carrying capability restrains the practical application of YBCO coated conductors at high temperatures and high magnetic fields. It is crucial to develop YBCO coated conductors with high flux pinning capability. In this paper, epitaxial, dense, smooth and crack-free YDyxBa2Cu3O7-δ (x = 0~0.5) films were prepared on a LaAlO3 (LAO) single crystal substrate via a fluorine-free polymer-assisted metal organic deposition (PA-MOD) method. The effects of Dy addition on the microstructure and superconducting character of YBCO films were investigated. The all films show a strong c-axis orientation and good texture in-plane and out of plane. The Dy addition to the YBCO film hardly affects the critical temperature of YBCO superconductor. The irreversibility fields of YBCO films can be improved with the Dy addition x = 0.5 compared to the pure YBCO film but decreased in the x = 0.3 sample.

Abstract:
Thin films of YBCO and thallium-based superconductor compounds have been deposited with very similar polycrystalline structures. The critical current densities carried by the YBCO films are much lower than measured in the thallium films (>103, as opposed to >104 A/cm2). Grain boundaries in these films have been studied to correlate microstructure with the measured electrical properties. High defect densities and frequent microcracking have been observed at and around the boundaries in the YBCO films, but these defects are not seen in the thallium-based films. We suppose that this difference is because of the higher differential thermal expansion stresses set up in YBCO during cooling. Our observations imply that eventual application of polycrystalline superconducting films prepared by an ex situ process is more likely for the thallium-based materials than for YBCO.

Abstract:
The effect of different oxygen annealing treatments on the structural and electrical properties of samples of the high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7δ(YBCO) synthesized by a biomimetic method has been studied. By oxygen annealing, the oxygen deficiency resulting from the synthesis in air can be adequately compensated. A two-stage annealing process including a high temperature step results in a sharper superconducting transition and higher critical current density of the YBCO than annealing only at low temperature, due to the additional elimination of carbon residues from the biopolymer additive. To avoid the formation of impurity phases resulting from decomposition of the YBCO during the high-temperature anneal, careful pre-treatment by rinsing the as-synthesized YBCO with distilled water to remove residual NaCl is necessary.

Abstract:
We discuss the results obtained for SrTiO3/YBa2Cu3O7 layers deposited on (001) MgO substrates by UV pulsed laser ablation. Different samples were prepared to study both the growth of a thin (55 nm) layer of SrTiO3 on MgO and the successive epitaxy of a 220 nm YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) film on the SrTiO3 layer. An x-ray diffraction (XRD) texture analysis is reported for the bilayers together with resistivity versus temperature and critical current density (Jc) measurements of the superconducting films. The results show that YBCO grains grow with c-axis normal to the surface; the main in-plane orientations are [100] MgO // [100] SrTiO3 // [100] YBCO ([010] YBCO). The XRD line broadening analysis suggests that YBCO columnar grains grow along the whole thickness of the film, also evidencing dislocations and/or faulting separated by a mean distance of 80 nm. The values obtained for the critical current of the superconductor demonstrate the effectiveness of the SrTiO3 intermediate layer in improving the structural quality of the YBCO film.

Thin-film superconductors of TlBaCaCuO (TBCCO) and YBaCuO (YBCO) were fabricated via an electrodeposition process. The precursors of the superconducting TBCCO films were codeposited at a constant potential of −4 V onto a silver-coated SrTiO3 substrate. The YBCO precursors also were codeposited but under pulsed-potential conditions (in order to improve the film morphology) and onto a silver-coated MgO substrate. The pulsed-potential cycle consisted of 1 s at −4 V followed by 1 s at −1 V. The post-annealed TBCCO film showed zero resistance at about 102 K and critical current density at 76 K of 20 000 A/cm2 in zero magnetic field and 5000 A/cm2 in a 10 kOe field parallel to the film plane. The post-annealed YBCO film showed zero resistance at approximately 80 K and critical current density of 5160 A/cm2 at 4 K in zero magnetic field.

We present ab-initio calculations for the electronic structure and superconducting properties of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 (YBCO). The electronic structure was calculated using a self-consistent ab-initio LCAO method. We solved the anisotropic Eliashberg gap equation numerically. The strong coupling of the high energy optical phonons around 60-73 meV, with the electrons at the Fermi surface, leads to a high Tc in YBCO. The calculated Tc is about 89 K for μ*=0.1. The good agreement of the calculated results with experimental measurements and the ab-initio nature of the calculations support the scenario of an anisotropic s-wave superconductor for YBCO.

<p>The effects of gamma ray irradiation on high temperature superconductors YBa2Cu3O7-δ with nano particles Fe3O4 (20-30 nm) addition were investigated. YBCO superconductor powders were prepared by using high purity oxide powders via solid state reaction method. 0.01 – 0.05 wt.% of nano particles were added into YBCO. Samples were irradiated with 100 kGy gamma ray. The critical temperature (Tc) and transport critical current density (Jc) were determined by using four point probe method. The lattice parameters and morphology of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), respectively. The results before and after gamma ray irradiation were compared. All of the samples showed increased Tc-zero after 100 kGy gamma ray irradiation. However, the Jcwas degraded after gamma ray irradiation. There is no significant variation found in the XRD patterns. The porosity of the samples was increased by the gamma ray irradiation. It can be concluded that gamma ray irradiation has enhanced the superconducting properties but degraded the transport properties.</p>
