Abstract

A method of evaluating the characteristics of superconductors, comprising: irradiating light to a superconductor held at a predetermined temperature; detecting light transmitted through the superconductor and composing a spectrum of the transmitted light; and using the obtained spectrum, calculating a ratio of the number of electrons contributing to a normal conduction to the number of electrons contributing to a superconduction in the superconductor, the ratio being effective at said predetermined temperature. A process and an apparatus for forming superconductor films by using the method are also disclosed.
