Characterization of Superconducting Magnesium-Diboride Films on Glassy Carbon and Sapphire Substrates

چکیده
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 superconducting films in order to obtain the samples elemental composition profiles. The zero resistance Tcoand the middle of transition Tcm values were 26.0K and 29.7K for the MgB2 film deposited on glassy carbon substrate. In the case of sapphire substrate the Tco and Tcm values were 25.0K and 27.9K, respectively.

High quality MgB 2 thin films in - situ grown by dc magnetron sputtering
Thin films of the recently discovered magnesium diboride (MgB2) intermetallic superconducting compound have been grown using a magnetron sputtering deposition technique followed by in-situ annealing at 830°C. High quality films were obtained on both sapphire and MgO substrates. The best films showed maximum Tc = 35 K (onset), a transition width of 0.5 K, a residual resisitivity ratio up to 1.6,...

Epitaxial titanium diboride thin films have been deposited on sapphire substrates by Pulsed Laser Ablation technique. Structural properties of the films have been studied during the growth by Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED) and ex-situ by means of X-ray diffraction techniques; both kinds of measurements indicate a good crystallographic orientation of the TiB 2 film both in p...
متن کاملMagnesium diboride coated bulk niobium: a new approach to higher acceleration gradient
Bulk niobium Superconducting Radio-Frequency cavities are a leading accelerator technology. Their performance is limited by the cavity loss and maximum acceleration gradient, which are negatively affected by vortex penetration into the superconductor when the peak magnetic field at the cavity wall surface exceeds the vortex penetration field (Hvp). It has been proposed that coating the inner wa...

Sapphire (a-A1203) is a desirable substrate for the growth of superconducting thin films due to its low dielectric constant and the extensive interest on silicon on sapphire technology. Unfortunately there exists a strong chemical interaction between sapphire and REBa,CusO,, ( RE123 ) ceramics’-3 which complicates the growth of high-quality-thin-film ceramic superconductors. Several reports on ...
