Abstract
Various orientations of YBa2Cu3O7−x grains in polycrystalline films prepared on (001)MgO substrates by in situ laser deposition were determined using electron diffraction. Eight different types of in-plane orientations have been observed. These orientations agree well with the prediction of a simplified theory of near coincidence site lattice between YBa2Cu3O7−x and MgO. The YBa2Cu3O7−x grains were found to have a high probability of forming low angle or low Σ boundaries among themselves. These grain boundaries are of low energy and should exhibit a high connectivity of Cu-O-Cu chains. Therefore, YBa2Cu3O7−x thin films on MgO can attain a Tc of ∼90 K and a Jc of ∼106 A/cm2 at 77 K.
