摘要
The performance of tunable microwave devices based on heteroepitaxial YBa2Cu3Ox/SrTiO3 films on (001) LaAlO3 substrates has been evaluated. It was ascertained that "out-of-plane" SrTiO3 lattice parameter is the relevant factor in determining both device agility and dielectric loss. After high temperature annealing (1100 degreesC, 1 atm O-2), only SrTiO3 layers deposited under low oxygen pressure (similar to 10(-5) Torr) show an appreciable reduction of the dielectric losses while maintaining high agility. Annealed samples exhibit voltage independent losses of similar to 5x10(-3) simultaneously with 55% dielectric agility at 6 GHz and 77 K. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
