Micron-Sized Constrictions Fabricated Using the Femtosecond Laser Technique on YBCO Thin Films
摘要： In this paper, I report on the fabrication of micron-sized constrictions in YBCO thin films using the femtosecond laser technique. The constrictions are S-shaped superconducting weak links fabricated on YBCO thin films. The constrictions show a measurable superconducting current flowing through them. Current-voltage (I–V) characteristics were used to determine the critical current IC of the constrictions at 77 K. The width of the constrictions was determined at the narrowest point using SEM (scanning electron microscope). Three micron-sized constrictions were fabricated with a width of 2.88 μm, 1.72 μm, and 1.69 μm and a length of 5 μm. Based on the width and length of these constrictions in relation to the coherence length (ξ) of the YBCO, these constrictions should conduct supercurrent by Abrikosov vortices. The SEM images show that the femtosecond laser heats the samples beyond the geometric boundary, damaging some of the superconductive phases of the YBCO constrictions. As a result, the constrictions conduct current by one-dimensional depairing.

Superconducting electrode capacitor based on double-sided YBCO thin film for wireless power transfer applications
摘要： A high-temperature superconducting (HTS) electrode capacitor (HTS capacitor) has been reported for the first time in the form of a superconductor–insulator–superconductor structure. Double-sided HTS thin film might be inherently suitable for the raw material choice of an HTS capacitor. In terms of electrode material, HTS thin film has a much lower surface resistance than normal conductors, and, as a dielectric medium, its substrate generally has a larger dielectric constant but a smaller loss tangent than the dielectric layers of some conventional capacitors. Thus, it is possible to fabricate a high-quality capacitor based on double-sided HTS thin film. This type of HTS capacitor could play a role in wireless power transfer (WPT) technology, since the WPT efficiency depends on the quality factors of both the coil and capacitor. Numerous studies have been performed to optimize the WPT system with HTS coil. In contrast, we develop an HTS capacitor based on double-sided YBCO film for WPT applications and investigate its effect on the WPT system. It is found that the HTS capacitor can provide a high quality factor, enhance WPT efficiency, and work normally with an HTS coil at 77 K, avoiding the dilemma between an HTS coil and a normal capacitor.
