Systematic experiments were performed by in situ observationofthe YBa2Cu3Oz(Y123or YBCO) melting. Remarkably, the superheating phenomenon was identifiedto exist in all commonly used YBCO thin films, that is, films depositedon MgO, LaAlO3(LAO), and SrTiO3(STO) substrates,suggesting a universal superheating mode of the YBCO film. Distinctively,YBCO/LAO films were found to possess the highest level of superheating,over 100 K, mainly attributed to the lattice match effect of LAO substrate,that is, its superior lattice fit with Y123 delaying the Y123 dissolvingand inferior lattice matching with Y2BaCuO5(Y211)delaying the Y211 nucleation. Moreover, strong dependence of the thermalstability on the substrate material for Y123 films was also foundto be associated with the substrate wettability by the liquid andthe potential element doping from the substrate. Most importantly,the understanding of the superheating behavior is widely valid formore film/substrate constructions that have the same nature as theYBCO film/substrate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
