We describe the preparation and characterization of epitaxial thin films made with high temperature superconductor, $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}$. The influence of processing parameters for YBCO thin films on MgO substrates in-situ grown by the pulsed laser deposition, including parameters of a laser beam energy, oxygen pressure, substrate temperature, target-substrate dis-tance is discussed. The characteristics of YBCO thin films were analyzed by using XRD, R-T measurement, AFM, crosssectional TEM, and RBS. For examples of microwave device applications, The fabrication and characterization of the microstrip lowpass filter and bandpass filter are also presented.

[ $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ ] films have been prepared on $LaAlO_3$ (100) single-crystal substrates by the metal organic deposition using dichloroacetate precursors (DCA-MOD). DCA precursor solutions with different composition such as; Yttrium-excess(15 at%), barium-poor(25 at%), and a stoichiometric(Y:Ba:Cu=1:2:3) were prepared in order to investigate the effects of precursor composition on the properties of YBCO films prepared by DCA-MOD method. Coated films were calcined at low temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$ in flowing humid oxygen atmosphere. Conversion heat treatment was performed $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in flowing Ar gas containing 1000 ppm oxygen with a humidity of 9.45%. For the film prepared using excess yttrium composition, high critical current density ($J_c$) of $>2MA/cm^2$ was obtained whereas, for the films prepared using barium-poor composition, $J_c$ was lower than $1MA/cm^2$.

The goal of the research is to study and describe a new stressed state of High Temperature Superconducting (High-T$_{c}$) YBCO Films, to create of SQUIDs (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) on the bases of these films with maximal sensitivity. With the experimental investigation of the stressed films grown by laser ablation method and its properties, the fabrication of the dc-SQUIDs with maximal sensitivity on the bases of the stressed YBCO films were carried out. The stressed film having the value of the critical current density J$_{c}$=3ㆍ$10^{5}$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was the more stable than others.ers.s.

YBCO thin films on metal substrates were prepared by the metal-organic deposition using trifluoroacetates (TFA-MOD). To compensate the loss of Ba element from the precursor films due to the reaction with $CeO_2$ cap layer, we have employed Ba-excessive precursor solutions of $YBa_{2+x}Cu_{3}O_{7-{\delta}}$ ($0{\le}x{\le}0.1$). The precursor solutions were dip-coated on the metal substrates with $CeO_2$ cap layer, initially heated up to $400^{\circ}C$, and finally fired at the various high temperatures for 2 h in a reduced oxygen atmosphere. With this approach, YBCO films possessing critical temperature over 85 K could be successfully prepared on the metal substrates. The highest $T_{c,zero}$ value of 86 K was obtained from the Ba-excessive YBCO film of x=0.005 in $YBa_{2+x}Cu_{3}O_{7-{\delta}}$ fired at $750^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. However, unexpected $T_c$ suppression even in Ba-excessive YBCO samples requires further identification.

We investigated quench distribution in AU/YBCO thin film meander lines with a heater. Quench distribution during faults is important for superconducting fault current limter applications, because uniform quench allows application of higher voltages across the meander lines. AU/YBCO thin films grown on sapphire substrates were patterned into meander lines by photolithography. Gold films grown on the rear sides of the substrates were also patterned into meander lines, and used as heaters. Meander lines on the front and the rear sides were connected in parallel. The meander lines were subjected to simulated AC fault currents for quench measurements during faults. They were immersed in liquid nitrogen during the experiment for effective cooling. Resistance of the AU/YBCO meander lines initially increased more rapidly with the rear heater than without, and consequently the fault current was limited more. The resistance subsequently became similar, The resistance distribution was more uniform with the heater, especially during the initial quench. Quench was completed more uniformly and significantly earlier. This resulted in uniform distribution of dissipated power. These results could be explained with the concept of quench propagation, which was accelerated by heat transfer across the substrate from the rear heater.

Ba$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) thin films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition using differently prepared targets: One was a conventionally solid-state sintered (SSS) target and the other was a modified melt-textured grown (MTC) target. Compared with SSS targets, MTG targets showed a well-connected microstructure consisting of much larger grains and the surface was Bess roughened with the cumulative laser incidence. YBCO films deposited from MTC targets showed a denser and smoother surface of the basal film than the case of SSS targets. The investigations of ${\alpha}$-axis outgrowths in the films indicated that the deposition using MTG targets would result in a more homogeneous and stable film growth as compared to the SSS targets. Also, TEM analysis revealed that the film deposited from MTG targets had a less granular microstructure that would reduce weak-link effects in the film.

We present current limiting properties of 1.2kV/70A superconducting fault current limiter based on YBCO thin films. This is consisted of 6 wafers (3 parallel $\times$ 2 serial connection) with 4 inch-diameter YBCO thin film. The quench current Iq of the switching elements vary between 33.9 and 35.6 A. Within the difference of 0.5 A in the sum of quench current Iq in two stacks, the serial connection of the stacks showed the simultaneous quench behavior in applied power of 1.2 kV/70A.

The HTS phase shifter shows 54 of figure of merit. These results can be applicable to phased anay antenna system for satellite communication services.

Dual mode ring resonators(DMRR) have been fabricated using laser ablated $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ superconducting thin films. The transition temperature of YBCO thin films were 85 - 88 K and the film thicknesses were about 5,000 $\AA$. Dual mode ring resonators were patterned by standard photolithography process and wet-etching. Then two-layer metal thin films (Ti/Ag) have been deposited for the ground plane on the back side of substrate by e-beam and thermal evaporation. The input/output feedline angles of each resonator were $60^{\circ}$, $100^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$. A network analyzer was used for testing the performance of the resonators in the frequency range of 6-13 GHz at 77 K.
