Interfacial Degradation of Insulator/YBa2Cu3Oy Heterostructure due to Mutual Diffusion of Constituent Atoms

View through CrossRef
The interfacial degradation of the insulator (SrTiO3, BaTiO3, PbTiO3, and BaO etc.)/YBa2Cu3Oy heterostructures during excimer-laser deposition and subsequent annealing has been investigated. The secondary-ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) measurement revealed, though very crudely, the mutual diffusion of constituent atoms. More precise data have been obtained quantitatively by measuring the change of the zero-resistance temperatures T c0's (Kosterlitz-Thoules transition) of ultrathin YBa2Cu3Oy before and after deposition of the insulating layers and annealing. The interfacial degradation developed with time t as t ∼0.4, reflecting the thermal diffusion of constituents. The degradation also depended on the partnering insulating layer, i.e., it was minimized by BaTiO3 and PbTiO3 (lower-melting-point insulators).
