Abstract:
The invention relates to an improvement in a method of forming deposits of superconducting ceramics. Generally, such ceramics are formed by electrodepositing a mixture of metals of the type and in proportions sufficient to be oxidized into ceramic; oxidizing the electrodeposited mixture under conditions sufficient to result in a superconducting ceramic deposit; and orienting the crystallites in said superconducting ceramic deposit. Crystallite orientation may take place before, after or during the oxidation step.
Abstract:
A method of forming films of superconducting ceramics is disclosed. The method involves electrodepositing a mixture of metals of the type which can be oxidized into superconducting ceramic. Thereafter, the metals deposited are oxidized to form the superconducting ceramic deposit. Deposits made by this method are also disclosed.
