Abstract:
Superconducting transition metal oxide films are provided which exhibit very high onsets of superconductivity and superconductivity at temperatures in excess of 40.degree.K. These films are produced by vapor deposition processes using pure metal sources for the metals in the superconducting compositions, where the metals include multi-valent nonmagnetic transition metals, rare earth elements, and/or rare earth-like elements and alkaline earth elements. The substrate is exposed to oxygen during vapor deposition, and, offer formation of the film, ambient followed by at least one annealing step in an oxygen ambient and slow cooling over several hours to room temperature. The substrates chosen are not critical as long as they are not adversely reactive with the superconducting oxide film. Transition metals include Cu, Ni, Ti, and V, while the rare earth-like elements include Y, Sc, and La. The alkaline earth elements include Ca, Ba, and Sr.
Abstract:
YO987-028 DEVICES USING HIGH Tc SUPERCONDUCTORS AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME A superconducting device operable at temperatures in excess of 30.degree.K and a method for making the device are described. A representative device is an essentially coplanar SQUID device formed in a single layer of high Tc superconducting material, the SQUID device being operable at temperatures in excess of 60.degree.K. High energy beams, for example ion beams, are used to convert selected portions of the high Tc superconductor to nonsuperconducting properties so that the material now has both superconducting regions and nonsuperconducting regions. In this manner a superconducting loop having superconducting weak links can be formed to comprise the SQUID device.
