【 摘 要 】

This is a multiyear experimental research program that focuses on improving relevant material properties of high-T{sub c} superconductors and developing fabrication methods that can be transferred to industry for production of commercial conductors. The development of teaming relationships through agreements with industrial partners is a key element of the Argonne National Laboratory(ANL) program. This report summarizes key results from a yearlong effort to apply Raman microscopy methods to the characterization of MBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub x} (MBCO, where M=Y or a rare earth element) thin films on textured substrates. Important crystallographic features and orientation relationships in coated conductors made by the inclined-substrate deposition (ISD) process are also presented.
