Out-of-plane tilted Josephson junctions of bi-epitaxial YBa2Cu3Ox thin films on tilted-axes NdGaO3 substrates with CeO2 seeding layer

Bi-epitaxial heterostructures YBa2Cu3Ox(YBCO)/CeO2/NdGaO3 were prepared on tilted-axes NdGaO3 substrates using laser ablation technique. The heterostructures were patterned for electrical measurements using photolithography and ion-beam milling. Electrical anisotropy of the YBCO film was tested on t...

Zusammenfassung:Bi-epitaxial heterostructures YBa2Cu3Ox(YBCO)/CeO2/NdGaO3 were prepared on tilted-axes NdGaO3 substrates using laser ablation technique. The heterostructures were patterned for electrical measurements using photolithography and ion-beam milling. Electrical anisotropy of the YBCO film was tested on the ion-beam etched surface. Bi-epitaxial junctions with four different orientations of the bi-epitaxial border were fabricated and studied. The measured IV curves showed flux–flow behavior with critical current density 2.5×104A/cm2 for the twist-type junctions and 1.5×103A/cm2 for [100]-tilt type junctions.
