摘要
We have recently studied the preparation and the characterization of the films deposited by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using liquid state sources [Y. Yoshida, Y. Ito, I. Hirabayashi, H. Nagai, Y, Takai, Appl. Phys, Lett. 69 (1996) 845; Y. Ito, Y. Yoshida, Y. Mizushima, I. Hirabayashi, H. Nagai, Y. Takai, Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 35 (1996) L825.]. In this paper, we describe the CVD process for the ultra-flat YBCO films block-by-block deposition using liquid sources. The high stability and good controllability of the sources enable us to study the early stage of epitaxial growth by depositing c-axis-oriented films with different number of sequence and different kind of substrates. Investigating the films deposited at 800 degrees C, we confirmed that the initial growth of YBCO films on MgO is multinuclear growth, and in the early stage (t less than or equal to 200 Angstrom), spiral growth appears, whereas that on SrTiO3 is two-dimensional growth and spiral growth appears after coalescence of initially grown crystallites having a flat-faceted surface.
