Abstract
As-grown c-axis-oriented thin films of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O on MgO(100) substrates were prepared by simultaneous deposition using the pulsed excimer laser ablation technique. The c-axis spacing of lattice planes could be controlled by the variation of Ca and Cu contents using simultaneous deposition with single targets. As Ca and Cu contents increased, the peaks of the X-ray diffraction pattern approached that of (Ca0.86Sr0.14)CuO2; the n=∞ parent of the Bi2Sr2Ca n-1Cu n O y superconductors with a lattice constant, 3.1995 Å, of the c-axis. After postannealing, films with T c,end over 100 K were obtained.Keywords
