Abstract: Cations such as La, Sr, Cu, or Y, Ba, Cu are dissolved in an organic solvent such as ethylene glycol and citric acid. The solution is formed into either a free-standing or supported film which is dried to produce a solid organic polymer. The polymer is then fired in an oxidizing atmosphere (pyrolysis) to obtain the superconducting oxide. It is preferred that the film be spin coated on a substrate to produce uniform coatings of thicknesses less than one micrometer. The resulting superconducting oxide film is fully dense, of controlled microstructure, very monogeneous in composition and suitable for demanding electronic device purposes or as coatings to form superconducting wires or other current carrying components.
Abstract: The invention comprises applying to a substrate a precursor of an organo-metallic compound, the precursor preferably consists of one or more pairs of ligand substituted Group III and V elements. The precursor is decomposed and deposits onto a receiving layer held at the decomposing temperature of the vaporized material.
Abstract: A process for forming a dielectric patterned layer of any desired geometry on a selected substrate which includes vapor depositing selected reactants on said substrate only in areas thereon which are coextensive with the surface area of an adjacent metal electrode pattern.
