Christodaro, Solar Energy Research Institute PROCEEDINGS R. D. McConnell, Solar Energy Research Institute S. A. Wolf, Naval Research Laboratory v PREFACE The Conference on the Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors was conceived in the early part of 1988 as a forum for the specialist in thin film superconductivity. The conference was held on November 14-18, 1988, in Co lorado Springs, Co lorado. Al though many excellent superconductivity conferences had been convened in the wake of the 1986-1987 discoveries in high temperature superconductivity, thin film topics were often dispersed among the sessions of a more general conference agenda. The response to the Conference on the Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors confirmed the need for an extended conference devoted to thin film superconductors. These proceedings are a major contribution to the technnology of thin film superconductivity because of the breadth and quality of the articles provided by leaders in the field. The proceedings are divided into articles on laser deposition, sputtering, evaporation, metal organic chemical vapor deposition, thick film, substrate studies, characterization, patterning and applications, and general properties. Most of the articles discuss scientific issues for high temperature thin film superconductors, although the conference was to be a forum for technology and scientific questions for both low and high temperature superconductivity. For the first day of the 5 day conference, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory had organized an excellent set of short courses in superconduc t ing thin film devices. For the res t of the conference, the program committee had invited speakers for about 25 of the 80 presentations; the remaining contributions appeared either as poster presentations or as additional oral presentations. The program committee was pleased with the quality of the contributed and invited presentations. Ultimately the conference hosted 210 researchers from 13 countries. This conferences was more than a set of technical presentations. It provided an important opportunity for private communications, for the purpose of understanding the latest research and identifying new research topics. Both the ambiance of the Red Lion Inn and other conference activities enhanced this opportunity. The poster session, on the second night of the conference, included a wine and cheese reception. Allen Hermann, whose trombone is as well known in jazz clubs throughout the U.S. as is his work on the thallium compounds, organized the superb Wednesday night entertainment entitled "Dixieland Music Scene." Thursday night's banquet provided an opportunity to reflect on what had been learned and to hear an industry perspective, presented by Donald Hicks, Group Vice President for Ball Aerospace Systems Group, on what needs to be done to realize the commercial potential. of high temperature superconductivity. Friday morning was devoted to the Colorado Superconductivity Shoot Out, an opportunity to compare the thallium vii compounds, bi smuth compounds, and 123 compounds. Randy Simon's presentation was a highlight during the Shoot Out because of his succinct comparison of these compounds using a Consumer Report's format. The conference included visits to the extensive thin film facilities at the Solar Energy Research Institute and the well known superconductivity facilities at Boulder's National Institute of Standards and Technology. There are many people and organizations responsible for the success of ~ conference and we thank the Solar Energy Research Institute and the Office of Energy Storage and Distribution within the U.S. Department of Energy for supporting us in organlzlng the conference. The Naval Research Laboratory, the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, and Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory provided important contributions. We thank the program committee who enticed so many excellent researchers into making presentations. Diane Christodaro, from the Solar Energy Research Institute, skillfully coordinated the preparations for the conference. Her help was appreciated by all attendees as she and her group resolved individual problems while ensuring the smooth flow of scheduled activities. We thank the many contributors who took the time and effort out of busy schedules to prepare thoughtful, quality, descriptions of their research activities. Finally, we thank Kristine Weber-McConnell and Iris Wolf for their understanding and support while we have pursued this exciting and important new area of research. Robert D. McConnell and Stuart A.
