  Originally developed technique based on generation of plasma-cluster flux
emitted from cathode spots at surface of an integrally cold cathode has been
applied for deposition of niobium superconductive (thick) film materials.
Possibility for depositing thick film coatings in homogeneous, heterogeneous
and layered structures is shown to be feasible. Experimental results of
mechanical tests including Tensile Testing resulting in stretching of coatings
are presented. Critical temperature, current density and magnetic field of
deposited superconducting films with various types of structural compositions
have been investigated. Niobium-titanium layered coating films deposited by
Ionic-plasma clusters method are characterized by very high parameters of
critical current density. All results reveal coating material high value in
terms of manufacturability. Low cost, high reliability and ease of
implementation of new technology for a wide-scale production of superconducting
film materials have been demonstrated.
