Abstract
The results of a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray micr oanalysis (EDS) study of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) films grown on vicinal(011 ) SrTiO3 substrates are presented. The YBCO films tend to be single cr ystalline grown in single variant orientation with c-axis approximate to 45 degrees from the surface. Cracks, second phase precipitates (CuO and Y2O3), and a few small YBCO grains in other orientations were rev ealed in the films. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
