Abstract

Abstract An Improved method of manufacturing superconducting ceramics in the form of a thin film are described. The thin film is first formed of a superimposed structure composed of three films which contain a rare earth metal, an alkalline earth metal and copper respectively. Then the superimposed thin film is fired to convert to a superconducting film.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 62 words
A method of forming a superconducting ceramic film comprising: forming at least one layer on a surface to be coated, said layer consisting of a plurality of superimposed thin films, each of which contains a different metallic constituent of a superconducting ceramic material; and firing said layer in an oxidizing gas containing atmosphere and transforming the same to said superconducting ceramic film.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 62 words
A method of forming a superconducting ceramic film comprising: forming at least one layer on a surface to be coated, said layer consisting of a plurality of superimposed thin films, each of which contains a different metallic constituent of a superconducting ceramic material; and firing said layer in an oxidizing gas containing atmosphere and transforming the same to said superconducting ceramic film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said thin films are formed by vacuum evaporation deposition, sputtering, printing, or vapor phase method.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 77 words
A method of forming a film of superconducting, metallic oxide ceramic comprising: forming a layer on a surface to be coated, said layer including different metallic constituents of a superconducting ceramic material, wherein said layer is initially formed from a plurality of thin films, each of which containing at least one of said metallic constituents, and firing said layer in an oxygen containing atmosphere and transforming the same to said film of said superconducting, metallic oxide ceramic.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 77 words
A method of forming a film of superconducting, metallic oxide ceramic comprising: forming a layer on a surface to be coated, said layer including different metallic constituents of a superconducting ceramic material, wherein said layer is initially formed from a plurality of thin films, each of which containing at least one of said metallic constituents, and firing said layer in an oxygen containing atmosphere and transforming the same to said film of said superconducting, metallic oxide ceramic.
