A superconducting article is provided that includes a substrate, an anti-epitaxial film over the substrate, a buffer film having biaxial crystal texture over the anti-epitaxial film, and a superconductor layer over the second buffer film. Also provided is a superconducting article as a tape, in a power cable, and a power transformer.

Anti-epitaxial film in a superconducting article and related articles, devices and systems

A superconducting article and a method of making a superconducting article is described. The method of forming a superconducting article includes providing a substrate, forming a buffer layer to overlie the substrate, the buffer layer including a first buffer film deposited in the presence of an ion beam assist source and having a uniaxial crystal texture. The method further includes forming a superconducting layer to overlie the buffer layer.
