Abstract
Multilayers of 2 wt-% Pr- and 4 wt-% BaZrO3-doped YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO) were deposited by pulsed laser ablation on SrTiO3 and MgO single crystals. The structural and superconducting properties of the multilayers are presented. Multilayering was found to improve the critical temperature and structural quality of the samples on SrTiO3, but it did not change the critical current density. On MgO, the critical temperature improved slightly, but the critical current density decreased. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier B. V. Selection and/or peer-review under responsibility of the Guest Editors.
