Abstract

Practical utilization of a coated conductor as a superconducting magnet operating at 77 K requires not only an improvement in the J_c at self field but also suppression of any decline in the J_c value in the magnetic field. In this study, nanoparticles and crystalline defects were created as the flux pinning in a high-J_c Sm_1+xBa_2-xCu₃O_y film during a film deposition process. We obtained extremely high-J_c values, J_c = 0.37 MA/cm² (77 K, B∥c, B = 5 T) and J_c = 0.1 MA/cm² (77 K, B∥c, B = 8 T). Cross-sectional low magnification and high-resolution TEM micrographs confirm the presence of Sm-enriched nanoparticles (x value > 0.2) embedded in the SmBCO lattice; typical particle sizes were 15 nm and particle density about 10¹⁰-10¹¹ particles cm^-2. We discussed about the elemental mapping of the high-J_c SmBCO films measured by TEM-EDX.
