Figure: (a) Evolution of the total critical current, Ic (77K) with YBCO film thickness (nm) using different deposition (spin coating and ink jet printing (IJP)) for single crystalline and metallic substrates, up to 1 µm thickness. Dashed lines indicate the slopes corresponding to different critical current densities, (b) Dependence of effective anisotropy factor (geff) and the intrinsic anisotropy factors (determined from resistive measurements in high fields up to 65 T (gHc2,HF), resistive measurements (gHc2,res) and microwave measurements (gMW) as a function of the nanostrain (%) for the pristine films (shown at 0.1 % nanostrain) and a set of nanocomposites with different nanostrain.
