“…Pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The PLD process, widely used in the development of the CC technology, has been recently optimized by various manufacturers (Bruker, Fujikura, SuperOx and Sumitomo) and scaled up to production lengths [11,16,20,21,26]. A pulsed ultraviolet laser, typically an excimer laser from KrF or XeCl, irradiated a sintered target with the desired composition to form a superconducting layer.…”
