Abstract:A very rapid thermal annealing technique has been employed on sputter-deposited YBaCuO films. After an O2 anneal (with or without a N2 preanneal) at temperatures as high as 920 °C for 8–12 s, films on (100)Si and on SiO2 /Si substrates exhibited superconductivity onsets above 95 K and zero resistance in the range 40–66 K.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
