Ion beam synthesis of superconducting MgB2 thin films
نویسندگان
چکیده
Superconducting MgB2 thin films have been fabricated by 80 keV B ion implantation into commercial Mg ribbon with B doses up to 10 ions/cm, followed by thermal annealing at 500 °C. Temperature dependent dc magnetization measurements confirmed superconducting phase transitions between 11 and 18 K for samples containing nanocrystalline MgB2 grains embedded in Mg substrate with a small amount of MgO inclusion. © 2003 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1537870#

Characterization of Superconducting Magnesium-Diboride Films on Glassy Carbon and Sapphire Substrates
IBA methods were applied to measure elemental depth profiles of precursors and superconducting MgB2 thin films deposited on glassy carbon (Good Fellows) and sapphire (Al2O3) substrates. For each type of substrates we obtained a pair of samples i.e. one amorphous precursor and one superconducting film which were then characterized. A He beam was used to bombard both, precursors and superconducti...
متن کاملIn situ epitaxial MgB2 thin films for superconducting electronics.
The newly discovered 39-K superconductor MgB2 holds great promise for superconducting electronics. Like the conventional superconductor Nb, MgB2 is a phonon-mediated superconductor, with a relatively long coherence length. These properties make the prospect of fabricating reproducible uniform Josephson junctions, the fundamental element of superconducting circuits, much more favourable for MgB2...
متن کاملEffect of Thickness on Structural and Morphological Properties of AlN Films Prepared Using Single Ion Beam Sputtering
Aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films have potential applications in microelectronic and optoelectronic devices. In this study, AlN thin films with different thicknesses were deposited on silicon substrate by single ion beam sputtering method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra revealed that the structure of films with thickness of - nm was amorphous, while the polycrystalline hexagonal AlN with a...
متن کاملMgB2 superconducting thin films with a transition temperature of 39 kelvin.
We fabricated high-quality c axis-oriented epitaxial MgB2 thin films using a pulsed laser deposition technique. The thin films grown on (1 i 0 2) Al2O3 substrates have a transition temperature of 39 kelvin. The critical current density in zero field is approximately 6 x 10(6) amperes per cubic centimeter at 5 kelvin and approximately 3 x 10(5) amperes per cubic centimeter at 35 kelvin, which su...
متن کاملFabrication and femtosecond photoresponse studies of MgB2 superconducting thin films
We present fabrication and optical time-resolved photoresponse characterization of MgB2 superconducting thin films. The films were prepared on crystalline and flexible plastic substrates by vacuum co-deposition of B and Mg precursors and high-temperature annealing in an Ar or vacuum atmosphere. The post-annealed films exhibited very smooth surfaces and amorphous structures with nanocrystal incl...
