Abstract
Production of MgB2 coatings on various metallic substrates was achieved by means of the direct electrophoretic deposition technique. An inexpensive simple heat treatment in evacuated quartz tubes was developed as an alternative to inert gas flow during the process. The films were characterized by XRD, SEM and SQUID. It resulted that the procedure led to the production of uniform, dense and well-adhesive superconducting films. Stainless steel proved to be the best substrate among the investigated metals.
