Influence of the second buffer layer for alignment of seed film on Ni tape with NiO buffer layer
Abstract
In order to investigate the influence of the buffer layer for the seed film quality which is important to obtain high quality liquid phase epitaxy film, we prepared several different kinds of SmBa 2Cu 3O y (Sm123) seed films on SOE-NiO buffered biaxially textured Ni tapes with and without the second buffer layer of BaZrO 3 by the pulsed laser deposition method. As a consequence of the investigation, it was found that BaZrO 3 is a suitable material as a buffer layer to obtain highly in-plane aligned Sm123 seed films on SOE-NiO buffered biaxially textured Ni tapes.
