Fabrication and characterization of La(2)Zr(2)O(7) films on different buffer architectures for YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7−δ) coated conductors by RF magnetron sputtering

La(2)Zr(2)O(7) (LZO) films were grown on different buffer architectures by radio frequency magnetron sputtering for the large-scale application of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7−x) (YBCO)-coated conductors. The three different buffer architectures were cerium oxide (CeO(2)), yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ)/CeO(2),...

description La(2)Zr(2)O(7) (LZO) films were grown on different buffer architectures by radio frequency magnetron sputtering for the large-scale application of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7−x) (YBCO)-coated conductors. The three different buffer architectures were cerium oxide (CeO(2)), yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ)/CeO(2), and CeO(2)/YSZ/CeO(2). The microstructure and surface morphology of the LZO film were studied by X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The LZO films prepared on the CeO(2), YSZ/CeO(2), and CeO(2)/YSZ/CeO(2) buffer architectures were preferentially c-axis-oriented and highly textured. The in-plane texture of LZO film on CeO(2) single-buffer architecture was ∆ φ = 5.5° and the out-of-plane texture was ∆ ω = 3.4°. All the LZO films had very smooth surfaces, but LZO films grown on YSZ/CeO(2) and CeO(2)/YSZ/CeO(2) buffer architectures had cracks. The highly textured LZO film grown on CeO(2)-seed buffered NiW tape was suitable for the epitaxial growth of YBCO film with high currents.
