Mr. Cimberle et al., IN-SITU FILM DEPOSITION OF SUPERCONDUCTING BOROCARBIDES BY PULSED-LASER ABLATION TECHNIQUE, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 282, 1997, pp. 573-574
Borocarbides compounds exhibit the record critical temperature for int
ermetallic materials. They show moreover intriguing interplay between
magnetism and superconductivity when the rare earth is magnetic. Here
we present a technique to obtain in situ deposition of these materials
using a pulsed laser multitarget system. We deposited films of YNi2B2
C and magnetic ErNi2B2C and HoNi2B2C.
