%X <p>Multilayer thin films of YBa<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>3</sub>O<sub>7-δ</sub> (YBCO) were deposited <em>in situ</em> on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and CeO<sub>2</sub> intermediate layers grown using ion-assisted pulsed-laser deposition. These structures were grown on amorphous SiO<sub>2</sub> dielectric layers. A critical current density of 3x10<sup>5</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup> was obtained for a YBCO film grown on SiO<sub>2</sub>-coated Haynes Alloy 230 substrate. Improvement of the critical current density was obtained below 77 K by doping the YBCO with 10% Ag. Angular magnetoresistance measurements provide further information about the texture of this film.</p>
