Zusammenfassung:The upper critical field Hc2 (4.2 K) of superconducting Nb3Ge films prepared by sputtering and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been measured in a pulsed field. The Hc2 of these films is generally related to their superconducting critical temperature Tc. Sputtered films exhibit a linear increase of Hc2 from 25.4 to 33.3 T for a Tc range 18.6–21.3 K. Although the data of CVD-prepared films are scattered due to nonuniformity in the films, a similar dependence of Hc2 on Tc has been found.
