Abstract

Hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition (HPCVD) has been the most effective technique for depositing MgB₂ thin films. It generates high magnesium vapor pressures and provides a clean environment for the growth of high purity MgB₂ films. The epitaxial pure MgB₂ films grown by HPCVD show higher-than-bulk T_c due to tensile strain in the films. The HPCVD films are the cleanest MgB₂ materials reported, allowing basic research, such as on magnetoresistance, that reveals the two-band nature of MgB₂. The carbon-alloyed HPCVD films demonstrate record-high H_c2 values promising for high magnetic field applications. The HPCVD films and multilayers have enabled the fabrication of high quality MgB₂ Josephson junctions.
