The superconducting thin films have shown a growing possibility for practical application in microelectronic fields in recent years. In this study, the high Tc superconducting Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films were prepared on various substrates by chemical vapor deposition method using organic metal chelates of $Y(thd)_3$, $Ba(thd)_2$, and $Cu(thd)_2$ as source materials. The deposition reactions were carried out on single crystalline MgO(100), YSZ(100), $SrTiO_3(100)$, and polycrystalline $SrTiO_3$ substrates. Deposition thickness of thin films was linearly increased with the increase of deposition time. It turned out that the Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films on MgO(100), YSZ(100), and $SrTiO_3(100)$ single crystal substrates showed superconductivities above liquid nitrogen temperature($T_{c,onset}=87{\sim}89K$, $T_{c,zero}=85{\sim}86K$), but the one on polycrystalline $SrTiO_3$ substrate did not.

Abstract: The effect of lead free glass frit compositions on the properties of thick film conductor and resistor pastes were investigated. Two types lead free frits, HBF-A(without $Bi_2O_3$) and HBF-B(with $Bi_2O_3$) were made from $SiO_2$, $B_2O_3$, $Al_2O_3$, CaO, MgO, $Na_2O$, $K_2O$, ZnO, MnO, $ZrO_2$, $Bi_2O_3$. And Ag based conductor pastes and $RuO_2$ based resistor paste were prepared by mixed with these frits and functional phase(Ag and $RuO_2$), and organic vehicle. The properties of thick film conductor and resistor sintered at $850^{\circ}C$ were studied after printing on $Al_2O_3$ substrate. The morphology of the sintered films surface were SEM and EDS were carried out to analysis the chemical composition on resistor surface and state of Ru atom in frit matrix.

Single-crystal like $MgB_2$ thin film was grown on (000l) $Al_2O_3$ substrate by using hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition (HPCVD) system. Single crystal properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the (0001) $MgB_2$ peak is $15^{\circ}$, which is very close to that has been reported for $MgB_2$ single-crystal. It indicates that the crystalline quality of thin film is good. Temperature dependence on resistivity was investigated by physical property measurement system (PPMS) in various applied fields from 0 to 9 T. The upper critical field ($H_{c2}$) and irreversibility field ($H_{irr}$) were determined from PPMS data, and the estimated values are comparable with that of $MgB_2$ single-crystals. The thin film shows a high critical temperature ($T_c$) of 40.4 K with a sharp superconducting transition width of 0.2 K, and a high residual resistivity ratio (RRR=21), it reflects that $MgB_2$ thin film has a pure phase structure.

The single crystalline thick fi1ms of Bi:Y$_3$Fe$_{5}$ $O_{12}$(Bi:YIG) were grown on (GdCa)$_3$(GaMgZr)$_{5}$ $O_{12}$(SGGG) by Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE). The changes of lattice mismatch and Bi concentration were investigated in the thick film growth as a function of PO/Bi$_2$ $O_3$ molar ratio, with keeping constant of substrate rotation speed, supercooling and growth time. It was grown that the lattice constant of the garnet single crystalline thick films and Bi content increased with decreasing of PO/Bi$_2$ $O_3$ molar ratio. Bi concentration decreased with increasing of the film thickness.

For present investigation Fe/MgO/Fe/Co multilayer stack is grown on Si substrate using e-beam evaporation in ultrahigh vacuum. This stack is irradiated perpendicularly by 120 MeV $Ag^{8+}$ at different fluences ranging from $1{\times}10^{11}$ to $1{\times}10^{13}ions/cm^2$ in high vacuum using 15UD Pelletron Accelerator at Inter University Accelerator Centre, New Delhi. Magnetic measurements carried out on pre and post irradiated stacks show significant changes in the shape of perpendicular hysteresis which is relevant with previous observation of re-orientation of magnetic moment along the direction of ion trajectory. However increase in plane squareness may be due to the modification of interface structure of stacks. X-ray reflectivity measurements show onset of interface roughness and interface mixing. X-ray diffraction measurements carried out using synchrotron radiation shows amorphous nature of MgO and Co layer in the stack. Peak corresponding body centered Fe [JCPDS-06-0696] is observed in X-ray diffraction pattern of pre and post irradiated stacks. Peak broadening shows granular nature of Fe layer. Estimated crystallite size is $22{\pm}1nm$ for pre-irradiated stack. Crystallite size first increases with irradiation then decreases. Structural quality of these stacks was further studied using transmission electron microscopic measurements. Thickness from these measurements are 54, 36, 23, 58 and 3 nm respectively for MgO, Fe, MgO, Fe+Co and Au layers in the stack. These measurements envisage poor crystallinity of different layers. Interfaces are not clear which indicate mixing at interface. With increase fluence mixing and diffusion was increased in the stack. X-ray absorption spectroscopic measurements carried out on these stacks show changes of Fe valence state after irradiation along with change of O(2p)-metal (3d) hybridized state. Valence state change predicts oxide formation at interface which causes enhanced in-plane magnetization.

Ion-beam assisted deposition (IBAD) technology has been successfully applied to high-temperature superconductor coated conductors (CC) as textured substrates. Since the coated conductors were proposed as a potential framework for utilizing the superior transport characteristics of $YBa_2Cu_3O_7$ and related cuprate oxides, several methods including rolling-assisted bi-axial textured substrates (RABiTS) and inclined substrate deposition (ISD), as well as IBAD, have been attempted. As of 2016, most companies that are trying to commercialize CC adapt IBAD technology except for American Superconductors who use RABiTS predominantly. For the materials in the IBAD process, initial efforts to use yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) or related fluorites in Fujikura in Japan have quickly given way to MgO which technique was developed by Stanford University in the USA. In this review, we present a historical overview of IBAD technology, in particular, for the application of CC. We describe the key scientific understanding of nucleation, the texturing mechanism, and the growth of large bi-axial grains and discuss some potential new IBAD materials and systems for large-scale production.

Tris (2-methyl-1-aziridinyl) phosphine oxide (MAPO) is extremely poisonous and persistent in aqueous media. An efficient UV/nano$TiO_2$ process was employed for its mineralization in a high duty falling film photo-reactor based on an experimental design scheme that considers interactions between the main variables. The influencing variables and their range were determined with preliminary studies. The results show substrate mineralization to some extent under mild conditions of: T = $30^{\circ}C$, pH = 8.5, $[MAPO]_0=60\;mg\;L^{-1}$ and $[TiO_2]=110\;mg\;L^{-1}$. The relative importance of the influencing parameters were initial pH > temperature > $[MAPO]_0$ > [$TiO_2$]; while the interdependence of all the parameters was significant. Accordingly, a reduced quadratic expression was developed. Meanwhile, mineralization kinetic studies, based on chemical oxygen demand, revealed a power law model with order of 2.6 during process time until 150 min.

Artificial $BaTiO_3$(BTO)/$SrTiO_3$(STO) oxide superlattice have been deposited on MgO (100) single crystal substrate by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) method. The stacking periodicity of BTO/STO superlattice structure was varied from $BTO_{1\;unit\; cell}/STO_{1\;unit\; cell}$ to $BTO_{125\;unit\; cell}/STO_{125 \;unit \;cell}$ thickness with the total thickness of 100 nm. The result of X-ray diffraction showed the characteristics of superlattice in the BTO/STO multilayer structure. we have also confirmed that there was no interdiffusion at the interface between BTO and STO layers by high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM). The dielectric constant of superlattice increased with decreasing stacking periodicity of the BTO/STO superlattice within the critical thickness. The dielectric constant of the BTO/STO superlattice reached a maximum i.e., 1230 at a stacking perioicity of $BTO_{2\;unit\; cell}/STO_{2\;unit\; cell}$ .
