200 nm magnetic ZnO films were grown on Y1B2Cu3O7(YBCO) films on sapphire by pulsed laser deposition for future Andreev Reflection (AR) study and to compare with previous spin polarization results [1]. Initial critical current density of 6×106 A/cm2 of YBCO at 77K [2] slightly reduced after growth of granular ZnO film and critical temperature was above 77K. Four-point transport measurements across ZnO/YBCO junction (area ≫ 1 mm2) resulted in nonlinear I-V characteristics in 5-150 K. Noisy conductivity fluctuations noticed at lower T at 0 bias were probably due to large junction area lying in Maxwell range (where d ≫ l , d = contact radius, l = mean free path). Fitting of conductivity data after Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk theory showed that superconducting gap (Δ) of YBCO and interface dependent ZnO/YBCO barrier strength (Z) amount to Δ ≤ 20.4 (±1) meV and Z ≥ 0.74 (±0.23) respectively. Smaller junction area AR measurements and Point contact AR measurements are underway. [1] L. Hartmann,etal, J. Phys. D.: Appl. Phys. 39(2006)1.
