YBa2Cu3Ox (YBCO) thin films grown on different substrates with and/or without Eu2CuO4 (ECO) buffer layer were investigated by X-ray wide angle diffraction, reflection, diffuse scattering and topography. Results show that for YSZ substrate, the presence of an ECO buffer layer improves the crystalline...
