Tiivistelmä
The influence of the BaZrO(3) (BZO) dopant concentration on structural and superconducting properties of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(6+x) (YBCO) thin films deposited on single crystal SrTiO(3) (STO) and buffered NiW metal substrates is investigated. Depending on the applied temperature and external magnetic field, the optimal BZO content n(opt) is found to vary so that irrespective of substrate used, in higher magnetic fields also higher n(opt) is needed. Moreover, the n(opt) of 4wt.% in YBCO films grown on STO is increased up to 7.5wt.% in films on NiW, especially in fields above 1 T. This phenomenon is qualitatively explained by the difference in size, shape and the distribution of BZO pinning centers and other structural disorders in the YBCO matrix. The results substantially affect to the development of the optimal flux pinning structure in future applications of high-temperature superconductors.
