J. Koshy et al., SUPERCONDUCTING YBA2CU3O7-DELTA THICK-FILM (T(C(0))=92K) ON SMBA2NBO6- A NEWLY DEVELOPED PEROVSKITE CERAMIC SUBSTRATE, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 215(1-2), 1993, pp. 209-212
The processing and development of SmBa2NbO6 as a non-reacting substrat
e for YBa2Cu3O7-delta films have been reported for the first time. The
dielectric constant and loss factor of this material are in a range s
uitable for its use as a substrate for microwave applications. A YBa2C
u3O7-delta superconducting thick film screen-printed on SmBa2NbO6 subs
trate gave a T(c)(0)=92 K and current density 2 X 10(5) A/cm2. This ma
y be the highest T(c)(0) reported in a YBa2Cu3O7-delta thick film scre
en-printed directly on any substrate.
