Abstract:The characteristics of YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO) thin films by laser ablation on MgO bicrystals have been investigated. The bicrystals were fabricated by hot pressing two single crystals with the configuration of [001] tilt boundaries. The YBCO films were epitaxial grown with C-axis normal to the both adjacent grains of bicrystals. The FWHM about (005) reflection was 0.4–0.5 degree, indicating the high degree of the oriention for the film with small mosaic spread. Our preliminary study showed that the typical value o… Show more
