Abstract

High temperature superconducting YBa₂Cu₃O₇ films have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition on top of single crystal substrates and metallic templates. Films have been investigated in order to determine the influence of microstructural peculiarities on the critical current density. It has been found that there is an inherent mechanism limiting the superconductive current flow in YBa₂Cu₃O₇ film deposited on metallic template. This mechanism is associated with YBa₂Cu₃O₇ film architecture, fabrication procedure and following low temperature usage.
