초록

We fabricated YBCO film using a TFA-MOD method. In order to enhance the reaction kinetics and to control the formation of the second phases, $Y_2Ba_1Cu_1O_x$ and $Ba_3Cu_5O_8$ powders were used as precursors (the so called "211 process"). The films were calcined at $460^{\circ}C$ and then fired at $750^{\circ}C-800^{\circ}C$ in a 12.1% humidified $Ar-O_2$ atmosphere. We found that the microstructure varied significantly with the firing temperature. The textures of all of the films were similar and mainly biaxial. For the film fired at $775^{\circ}C$, the critical current was obtained to be 39 A/cm-width (corresponding critical current density is 2.0 MA/$cm^2$).
