Abstract
We have attempted to deposit YBa2Cu3Oy oxide superconducting thin film s using low-pressure plasma flash evaporation. The RF plasmas used wer e sustained at 20-30 Torr by a 13.56 MHz RF generator operated at 8-10 kW. We have obtained dense and shiny films at a deposition rate of ab out 10 Angstrom/s. The best film on MgO(100) substrate showed a sharp resistive transition with T-c(resistivity; p = 0) as high as 91 K and J(c) of 4.3 x 10(4) A/cm(2) at 77 K and zero field.
