Abstract

A series of Ag-doped GdBaCuO superconducting films were prepared by low fluorine MOD process on buffered Hastelloy substrates. The effects of Ag doping on the microstructures and superconducting properties of GdBCO thin films were investigated. It was found that an optimum addition of about 5 mol % Ag lead to better c-axis orientation and surface microstructure of the resultant films. Meanwhile, the pyrolysis process shortened and the superconducting performance is improved with a wide available window.
