Target was pieced together with half of YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-δ)(YBCO) and half of HoBa_2Cu_3O_(7-δ)(HBCO) superconducting materials. As the distance between HBCO targetmaterial and substrate is varied , the Ho content in material is changed respectively. When the content of Ho is0. 7 (atom ratio) , the T_c>83K.展开更多
