Abstract
The present invention comprises a high quality, epitaxial thallium-based HTS thin film on MgO and other substrates and methods of providing the same. The present invention is achieved using a nucleation layer which provides a template for subsequent growth. Specifically, YBCO and/or YBCO analog films (films having growth characteristics and physical structures analogous to YBCO) are used as nucleation layer(s) on MgO and other substrates to enable the growth of epitaxial thallium-based HTS films.
