Abstract:
Recent years, La2Zr2O7(LZO) used as a buffer layer in coated conductors is paid more and more attention due to its unique physical and chemical properties worldwide. This article presents the result of the LZO buffer layer deposited on the cubic textured Ni-5at%W substrate by chemical solution deposition (CSD). The precursor solution was prepared by using the acetylacetone lanthanum and the acetylacetone zirconium as precursor salts, and the propionic acid as a solvent. The characteristic of the precursor solution and the influence of the annealing temperature on forming the phase and the orientation of LZO buffer film were investigated by analyzing the data of FT-IR spectra of the LZO solution, the data of the XRD pattens and the SEM images of the films, respectively. It was found that the cubic texture in the LZO buffer layer was obtained when annealing at 1050°C. The values of full width at half maximum (FWHM) of (222) Phi scan is 8.95°, (400) Chi scan being 6.8°, respectively, which implies the sharpness of the texture in the as obtained buffer films. The SEM pictures observed by high resolution electron microscope show that the surface of the LZO buffer layer is smooth, dense and homogenous with free-crack and free-hole.
