Abstract

In this short report, we describe some of the structural defects present in laser deposited Y‐Ba‐Cu‐O thin films. Many of the defects observed are polytypoidic variants, related to the layered structure of these cuprates. One possible model by which flux pinning can be achieved is presented.
