Abstract

We report on the observation of filamentary superconductivity up to 220 K in multiphase Y-Ba-Cu-O materials that are deposited as highly oriented thin films on (110)-SrTiO3 substrates by laser ablation from ceramic targets. The high temperature zero resistivity states are reproducible after temperature cycling down to 80 K for samples treated by a special oxygenation and ozonization process at 340 K and measured in a pure oxygen atmosphere. Our results on thin films confirm former experiments of J.T. Chen and co-workers obtained on ceramic samples with preferred crystallite orientation. A close connection between superconductivity and structural instabilities of most likely ferroic nature, which are observed more often for YBa2Cu3O7 in a narrow temperature range near 220 K, is suggested.
