The use of coated conductors for power applications requires the improvement of the critical current densities in high magnetic fields. Significant research effort has been undertaken to investigate and enhance the flux pinning forces of high-temperature superconducting thin films. One possibility is the introduction of nano-sized defects into the superconductor thereby creating quasimultilayers of a complete superconducting layer and an incomplete dopant layer. In this work we present the phase formation and critical current density characteristics of YBCO based quasimultilayers doped with the double perovskite phase Y₂Ba₄CuMO_y (Y2411) (M=Zr and Nb). We will show evidence for a reaction from the Y2411 phase to a simple Yttrium doped perovskite Ba(M_1−xY_x)O₃ during film deposition. These second-phase inclusions clearly enhance J_c in high magnetic fields.
