Abstract
Excimer laser-induced sputtering of YBa2Cu3O7−x targets has been investigated. Two aspects of this process are reported here: the spectral content of the emission and sputtering of the target. Postsputtering analysis of the sputtered area of the target shows a nonstoichiometric composition: rich in Cu but depleted of Ba and Y.
