AbstractFilms of the high‐Tc undoped and Pb‐doped Bi‐Sr‐Ca‐Cu‐O (BSCCO) superconductors have been prepared by low pressure organometallic chemical vapor deposition (OMCVD) using the volatile metal‐organic precursors Cu(acetylacetonate)2, Sr(dipivaloylmethanate)2, Ca(dipivaloylmethanate)2, and triphenyl bismuth. Factors which influence texture and morphology of the OMCVD‐derived films have been investigated, including the effects of annealing, doping, and substrates.
