Abstract

Clean surfaces on the (001), (110), (11l), and (103) planes of superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-δ have been obtained by electron irradiation, and investigated using high-resolution electron microscopy. Observed “Amorphous” coating layers on YBa2Cu3O7-δ specimens crushed in air and argon were found to be different. Possible mechanisms of formation of these coating layers are discussed.
