은(Ag)의 첨가가$ YBa_{2}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) 고온초전도체의 미세조직, 기계적 및 전기적 성질에 미치는 효과를 연구하였다. 소량의 Af(5, 10, 15 vol.%)는 각각 금속분말상태와 질산염인 $AgNO_{3}$초전도체의 강도와 인성값이 Ag의 함량이 증가할수록 높게 나타났으며, 이는 Ag입자에 의해 야기되는 강화기루에 의한 것으로 생각된다. 또한 Ag를 질산염의 분말상태로 첨가하여 만든 YBCO-Ag 복합재료가 금속분말상태로 첨가하여 만들었을 때보다 강도 및 인성값이 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. $AgNO_{3}$를 첨가한 복합체가 상대적으로 더 우수한 기계적 성질을 가지는 것은 Ag 입자가 더 미세하고 균일하게 분포되었기 때문으로 판단된다. Ag 첨가로 인해 YBCO 복합초전도체의 전류밀도값은 미세하게 증가하는 것으로 관찰되었다.

Superconducting YBCO thin films are fabricated on single-crystalline substrates by Metallo-organic Depostion process employing Trifluoroacetic acid as a chelating agent (MOD-TFA). (100)-oriented single crystalline LaAlO$_3$ substrates were employed to grow superconducting film with high crystallinity. The fully processed YBCO thin films were characterized with XRD, SEM, EDS, etc. The microstructures of YBCO thin films show labyrinth-like patterns. The origin of this microstructure was delineated by compositional inhomogeneity during the MOD process and it was shown that the microstructure may be modified by additives. In this work, effects of additives on the microstructures and electrical properties of YBCO thin films have been investigated.

Instead of using KrF excimer lasers( ${\lambda}$ = 248 nm) in depositing oxide thin films, as in the most of the laboratories in Korea, we have used an ArF excimer laser( ${\lambda}$ = 197 nm) which has a shorter wavelength. By using a beam which has a shorter wavelength, we could obtain higher quality and smoother surface YBCO thin films. We fabricated YBCO thin films with the various substrate temperature conditions and analyzed the characteristics of these films. We also studied the charateristics of the films fabricated under the various conditions of the power of laser and the oxygen pressure. The characterization tools used in this work were a transport measurement setup, an XRD , and a SEM. We also fabricated STO/YBCO multilayers to use in SFQ devices fabrication. XRD patterns of the multilayers showed that the multilayer films were grown epitaxially.

The effect of silver oxide (14 wt.%) addition to YBCO compounds and electrophoretic deposition of composite particles prepared by solid phase reaction have been investigated. The results were compared with those for as-processed samples with YBCO films on Ag wire substrate. Our experiments show that the adhesion, microstructure changes, superconducting properties of these films is sensitive to the silver content and sintering conditions. Adding a small amount of PEG tends to remove cracks in the YBCO and (YBCO + Ag) films, which develop during the heating process. An attempt has been made to explain the experimental observations regarding variation of critical current density with the YBCO and (YBCO + Ag) films.

[ $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-8}$ ] (YBCO) coated conductor has been fabricated by batch-type process using oxide-precursor-based metal-organic deposition (MOD) method. The batch-type process can be scaled up more simply to Produce long-length YBCO conductor than the reel-to-reel process. Also, it has less handling problems and is adequate to the ambient gas environment. In this work, YBCO oride powder was used as a starting precursor for MOD method. After reel-to-reel dip coating process, me ter-long-buffered metal tape was wound around a cylinder and underwent calcination and annealing processes. Annealed YBCO films showed good c-axis alignment and dense surface morphology with no cracks, but exhibited very low critical current density of $10^5\;A/cm^2$.

We have investigated the MOD process successfully for the fabrication of the YBCO thick film on the $LaAlO_3$(001) single crystalline substrate. The cracking problem in YBCO thick film, a serious problem in the conventional TFA-MOD method, could be overcome with a careful control of precursor materials. Thus coating solution was prepared for the YBCO thick film by using fluorine-free precursor material. The precursor solutions were coated on the LAO(001) single crystalline substrate using the dip coating method, calcined at the temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$, and fired at various high temperatures for 2 h in a reduced oxygen atmosphere. Optimally processed YBCO thick film exhibited high critical current($I_c$) over 200 A/cm-width at 77K in self-field.

[ $BaZrO_3$ ], nanopowder was added to YBCO powder to make ($BazrO_3)_x(YBCO)_{(100-x)mol.-%}$ ($BZO_x$-YBCO) ($0{\leq}x{\leq}10$) composite targets fur pulsed laser deposition of superconducting layer in order to investigate the effect of the addition of BZO nanopowder in the YBCO target on the flux pinning properties of $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films. All the $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films were grown on single crystal STO substrate under similar conditions in the PLD chamber. The effect of YBCO targets doped with BZO on the flux pinning properties of $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films has been investigated comparatively. The isothermal magnetizations M(H) of the films were measured at temperatures between 5 and 80 K in fields up to 5 T, employing a PPMS. The optimal amount of BZO nanopowders in $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films to obtain the strongest flux pinning effects at high magnetic fields is about 6 mol.-%.

YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) films were deposited on MgO(100) and SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrates by cold-wall type MOCVD method using continuous source supplying system. Under the deposition temperature of 740∼76$0^{\circ}C$, c-axis oriented YBCO films were obtained. In case of the YBCO films deposited on MgO (100) single crystal substrate, the critical temperature (T$_{c}$) was under 81 K regardless of the deposition conditions, whereas T$_{c}$ of the YBCO films deposited on SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrate was 83∼84 K. The critical current (I$_{c}$) of the YBCO film deposited on SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrate for 30 min was 49 A/cm-width and the critical current density (J$_{c}$) was 0.82 MA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to film thickness of 0.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. I$_{c}$ increased to 84.4 A/cm-width as the deposition time increased to 50 min, but J$_{c}$ decreased to 0.53 MA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to film thickness of 1.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.rm}{m}$.

YBCO coated conductor is named by second generation superconductor tapes. It is different with first generation superconductor tapes. YBCO coated conductor's specific difference with Bi-2223/Ag tape is more strong mechanical durability. This is important role to apply to superconducting machines. For mechanical transforming of YBCO coated conductors, we are using the well designed former. The merit of transformation is several. First, we vary the superconducting characteristics according to mechanical stress. Second, we reduce the volume of superconductor, so we achieve reducing the volume of superconducting machines. On this study, we experiment the transporting current characteristics of one types YBCO coated conductor. YBCO coated conductor with Ie of 70 A and voltage grade of 0.6 V/cm were connected to spiral former to conduct current application test.
