Abstract

We have fabricated YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ thin films by cylindrical hollow cathode sputtering. For 2 inch diameter of MgO (100) substrate, we obtained the zero resistance temperature in the range from 83 K to 86 K and thickness uniformity better than 5 % over the whole area. Also, the average deposition rate was 100nm/h which is higher than 10 times compare to conventional off-axis sputtering method. These results indicate that cylindrical hollow cathode sputtering seems to have unique capabilities for high rate and homogeneous deposition of large area thin film.
