摘要
The effective thermal expansion coefficient of the c-axis-oriented, twinned YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YBCO) film formed on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by liquid phase epitaxy was evaluated by observing crack formation of the films. The critical thickness of the YBCO film grown on STO at 920 degrees C is about 1.35 mu m. A simple fracture model with mechanical properties of materials yields the effective thermal expansion coefficient of YBCO film of about 14.0 x 10(-6)/K, as an engineering value for prediction of crack formation on various substrates. Temperature dependence in the thermal expansion of the substrate and the film suggests that control of oxygenation conditions enables us to suppress maximum stress induced in the films. According to the estimation, we predict the critical film thickness on various substrates used widely in oxide superconductor research.
