Various thin film deposition methods such as RCE-DR, MOD, MOCVD, and PLD have been used to fabricate second-generation high-temperature superconducting (2G HTS) tapes. Especially, 2GHTS tapes fabricated by the pulsed laser deposition process show excellent electrical current conduction properties under high magnetic field and have recently become a popular research field worldwide.

We focused on identifying the optimal conditions for the continuous deposition of YBa₂Cu₃O₇-δ(YBCO) superconducting layers using the reel-to-reel PLD method on the bi-axially textured substrates made by Ion Beam Assisted Deposition (IBAD) process. Key parameters such as substrate heating temperature, oxygen partial pressure, and pulsed laser settings in a vacuum were examined to determine their impact on the quality of the HTS tapes.

The fabricated tapes were characterized for biaxial alignment using XRD, assessing the 2-theta, in-plane and out-of-plane texture. Additionally, surface and cross-sectional analyses were conducted using SEM, and critical current measurements were performed using the Hall-Ic measurement system.
