采用化学溶液法在NiW(200)基带上进行了Ce1-xSmxO2-y(x=0,0.2,1)缓冲层的制备及生长机理研究。结果表明,化学溶液法可以成功制备出双轴织构的Ce1-xSmxO2-y缓冲层;在x=0和x=0.2的情况下,所制备的缓冲层有裂纹产生;但是随着x的增加,开裂现象被逐步抑制。对x=1的Sm2O3缓冲层而言,当厚度增加到120nm时依然没有产生裂纹,表明Sm2O3缓冲层可以作为单一缓冲层而得以使用。
We report the fabrication and growth mechanism of Ce1-xSmxO2-y (x=0, 0.2, 1)/NiW (200) single buffer layers using chemical solution deposition method. The results show that highly biaxially-textured Ce1-xSmxO2-y buffer layer can be prepared by chemical solution deposition method. When x=0 and x=0.2, there were some cracks in the buffer layer, but the critical thickness of cracking is improved with increasing x. For x=1, namely the Sm2O3 buffer layer, no cracks appear even the thickness reaches about 120 nm. Moreover, the dense and flat microstructure, the strong out-of-plane orientation as well as in-plane orientation suggest that Sm2O3 can be used as a candidate of single buffer layer for coated conductors.
