Abstract

A method includes forming an as-grown film of a superconductor composed of a MgB2 compound which is made by simultaneous evaporation of magnesium and boron. The as-grown film is superconductive without an annealing process to make the film superconductive. The method can be applied to fabricate an integrated circuit of the superconductor film, because a high temperature annealing process to make the as-grown film superconductive is not needed.
