The SrTiO3 films prepared by chemical method possess features of low-cost and efficiency, and they are a promising buffer layer for YBCO coated conductors. STO buffer layers were prepared on Ni-5W substrate by chemical solution deposition. Acetate and tetrabutyl titanate were used as precursors to synthesize the precursor solutions of STO seed layers, LaxSr1-xTiO3 seed layers and STO buffer layers. Effect of the thickness of STO seed layers on the properties of SrTiO3 epitaxial films prepared on STO/Ni-5W(200) structures was studied. The results showed that three multilayer STO seed layers were sintered at 880℃ which was favorable to fabricate (200)-oriented STO films with smooth surface. When La was added into STO, stabilized LSTO precusor solution could be obtained, and highly (200)-oriented STO buffer films were prepared on LSTO/Ni-5W structures. They can be a promising buffer layer for YBa2Cu3O7-δ coated conductors.
