$YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ 초전도체를 $925^{\circ}C$, 산소 분위기에서 16시간 액상 소결할 때 액상-포켓이 결정립 내부에 포획되어 있는 것이 관찰되었다. 액상-포켓은 a, b 축의 길이가 같고 c축이 짧은 직육면체 모양의 판상형태를 갖고 있었으며, 같은 조건에서 16시간 동안 재열처리해도 액상-포켓의 모양은 그대로 유지되었다. 그리고 액상에 분산되어 있는 모든 결정립들이 액상-포켓과 같은 형태를 보였는데, 이것은 액상에 분산되어 있는 $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ 결정립의 모양이 열역학적 평형 조건에 의해 결정됨을 의미한다. 그러나 $925^{\circ}C$, 질소 분위기에서 16시간 액상 소결한 경우에는 $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ 결정립이 산소에서 액상소결한 것보다 c축이 다소 두터워진 직육면체 모양의 판상형태를 갖는 것이 관찰되었다. 이러한 결정립 형태(grain shape)의 차이는 tetragonal 결정구조의 $CuO_2$면 (a-b basal plane)에 존재하는 산소 공공의 농도가 열처리 분위기에 따라 차이가 있기 때문이며, 이로 인해 c축에 평행한 (결국 $CuO_2$면에 수직한 방향) 고상-액상 계면 에너지가 열처리 분위기에 따라 변하기 때문인 것으로 믿어진다. 그리고 산소와 질소 분위기에서 각각 액상 소결한 So와 $S_N$시편을 분위기를 바꾸어 재열처리하는 스위칭 실험을 하여, 분위기에 따른 결정립 형태의 변화를 명확하게 관찰할 수 있었다.

In this report, a new process for patterning of YBaCuO thin films, ICP(inductively coupled plasma) method, is described by comparing with existing wet etching method. Two 100㎛ wide and 2mm long YBaCuO striplines on LaAlO$_3$ substrates have been fabricated using two patterning techniques. And the properties were compared with the critical temperature and the SEM photography. Then, the critical temperatures of two samples were about 88 K, but the cross section of sample using ICP method was shaper than that using the wet etching method. ICP method can be used as a good etching technique process for patterning of YBaCuO superconductor.

$YBa_2Cu_3O_x$(Yl23) Superconducting thick films on $Y_2BaCuO_5$(Y211) substrate were Prepared by surface diffusion process between $BaCuO_2$+CuO composite coating powder and a Y2ll substrate. X-ray diffraction shows that the Yl23 layer onto Y2ll substrate is the orthorhombic crystal structure. The specimen heated at $940^{\circ}C$ for 2h showed the maximum $J_c$ fo 500A/$cm^2$. Based on optimal condition, the superconducting fault current limiter(FCL) having a current limiting area 1mm wide and 66mm long was fabricated on Y211 substrate. A typical current limiting waveform was measured. When a voltage of 3V was applied, the fault current with a peak of 15A was limited to about 0.11A.

Formation of pores in melt-processed $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ (123) oxides and its effect on the microstructure were studied. Spherical pores with a size of a few tens of microns were formed due to the evolution of oxygen gas during melting of a 123 oxide. Some of pores were converted into liquid pockets by liquid filling, but others remained unfilled. The liquid pockets were converted into spherical 123 regions with a lower $Y_2BaCuO_5$ (211)density through the peritectic reaction during subsequent cooling, while the pores were entrapped into the periteictically grown 123 grains. The spherical 123 regions often consists of a residual melt due to the unbalanced peritectically reaction.

The superconducting properties of YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$$O_{7-x}$(YBaCuO) thin films prepared by laser ablation have been investigated. The x-ray diffraction patterns of the films were substantially different from one another. The Y and Ba oxides are formed by the collisions with oxygen molecules. On the other hand, the Cu oxide is mainly formed at initial stage of the laser irradiation. The YBaCuO films manufactured on MgO(100) substrate were indicated T$_{c}$(zero)=90 K, T$_{c}$(onset)=92 K, and J$_{c}$=3.5*10$^{5}$ A/cm$^{2}$(at 77.3K). The optimum conditions were found to be a substrate temperature of 710.deg. C, an energy density of 2 J/cm$^{2}$, and a target-substrate distance of 60mm in an oxygen partial pressure of 200 mTorr.0 mTorr.

The high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) have attached attentions because of a high superconducting transition temperature, low surface resistance, high superconducting critical current density (Jc), and superior superconducting capability under magnetic field. Moreover, the Jc of YBCO superconductors can be enhanced by adding impurities to the YBCO films for vortex-pinning. Understanding and controlling pinning centers are key factors to realize high Jc superconductors. We synthesized vertically-aligned ZnO nanorods on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by catalyst-free metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and subsequently, deposited YBCO films on the ZnO nanorods/STO templates using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The various techniques were used to analyze the structural and interfacial properties of the YBCO/ZnO nanorods/STO hybrid structures. SEM, TEM, and XRD measurements demonstrated that YBCO films on ZnO nanorods/STO were well crystallized with the (001) orientation. EXAFS measurements from YBCO/ZnO nanorods/STO at Cu K edge demonstrated that the local structural properties around Cu atoms in YBCO were quite similar to those of YBCO/STO.

A diffusion heat treatment process for YBa₂Cu₃O_7-y bulk superconductor in a Gd₂O₃ powder was attempted. As a result of measuring the critical temperature of the superconducting bulk, there was no change in the superconducting transition temperature as the Gd particles diffused into the YBa₂Cu₃O_7-y lattice, resulting in dense microstructure. As a result of measuring the critical current, the critical current density (J_c) of the superconducting bulk having treated by the Gd thermal diffusion treatment at 0 T increased to 3×10⁴ A/cm² at 0 T, which was higher than that of the superconducting bulk without thermal diffusion treatment. The surface magnetic force of the superconducting bulk with Gd thermal diffusion treatment was observed at the center of the superconducting bulk with the maximum trapped magnetic force (Hmax) of 1.51 kG. This result means that the Gd thermal diffusion treatment contributes to improving the critical current density Jc of YBa₂Cu₃O_7-y, and it is believed that Gd particles migrating into the superconducting bulk through thermal diffusion either fill the surface pores of YBa₂Cu₃O_7-y superconductors or act as a flux pinning center.

We have performed $^{63,65}$Cu nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements on Zn and Ni doped YBa$_2Cu_3O_7$ (YBa$_2Cu_{3-x}M_xO_7$, M=Zn or Ni, x = 0.00 ${\sim}$ 0.09). Doping effects are markedly different in relaxation rates as well as in superconducting transition temperatures. Both the spin-lattice and the spin-spin relaxation rates decrease for Zn doped YBCO. However, those increase for Ni doped YBCO. This contrast in local electronic dynamics provides a clear microscopic evidence that Zn forms no local moment, while Ni develops a local moment. Consequently, the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation is suppressed by Zn doping whereas it is preserved by Ni doping.

The superconducting properties of YBaCuO thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) have been investigated. The x-ray diffraction patterns of the films are substantially different from one another. The YBaCuO thin films manufactured at the 20% of Argon mixture ratio were indicated $T_c$(zero)=88.2 K, $T_c$(onset)=92.1 K, and $J_c=9.0{\times}10^4A/cm^2$(at 77.3K).
