摘要
Phase relationships in bulk and thin film Ba-Y-Cu-O high-T(c) superconductor system were determined at processing conditions relevant for industrial production of coated conductors. Our results demonstrated that the absence of BaY(2)CuO(5) (which has a critical effect on flux pinning) at 735 degrees C-a typical temperature employed in production of coated conductors-in thin films processed in situ from the BaF(2) precursor is caused by the sluggish reaction kinetics rather than by the presence of fluorine in the system. Thermodynamic calculations combined with annealing experiments confirmed that BaY(2)CuO(5) is thermodynamically stable but forms at temperatures higher than 735 degrees C.
