Abstract:High quality, sharp cube textured Ni substrates for YBCO thick films have been fabricated by a cold rolling and recrystallization annealing process. The prevalent quality evaluation of the cube textured Ni substrate are studied.. The results show that (001) spectrograms obtained from scanning and FWHM of (001) rocking curves by 6 scanning are relative to the f angles.Correspondent: Liu Chunfang, Professor, Superconducting Material Research Center, Northwest institute for Nonferrous Metal Research, Xi'an 710016, P.
