Double-sided YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) films were successfully prepared on 50-mm-diameter CeO2-buffered sapphire substrates by metalorganic deposition (MOD) process using an acetylacetonate coating solution. Mapping analysis of superconducting current densities (Jc) at 77.3 K revealed that Jc values of the double-sided films indicated in excess of 2 MA/cm2 in the center parts with a small decrease of Jc at the outer side of the specimens. The Jc values of one side (A) are higher than those of the other side (B). Microwave surface resistance (Rs) of sides A and B of the film exhibited 0.57 and 0.60 mΩ, respectively, at 70 K (12 GHz). The difference in the Rs values should be attributed to the slight difference in the Jc values, which arose from the surface morphology of the CeO2 buffer layer and heat treatment conditions during the firing process in MOD.
