SrTiO3 is an
excellent and wide applied High Tc superconductive single
crystalline substrate. Its lattice constant (3.905Å)
fits the common high Tc superconductive material YBCO
(3.88 Å) very well. It has twin-less crystal structure
and very good physical and mechanical properties for
film growth. It is suitable for various high Tc films
such as YBCO, Bi-system, La-system and others. It is
also suitable for different film growth technologies
such as Magnet Sputtering, Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD),
Vapourization, MOCVD, CVD, and laser MBE etc. Films
made by these materials and technologies on SrTiO3 substrate
have excellent performance, for instance Tc>90K,
Jc> = 106A/cm2.
