The critical currents of MOD/RABiTS and PLD/IBAD coated conductors have been
measured as a function of magnetic field orientation and compared to films
grown on single crystal substrates. By varying the orientation of magnetic
field applied in the plane of the film, we are able to determine the extent to
which current flow in each type of conductor is percolative. Standard
MOD/RABiTS conductors have also been compared to samples whose grain boundaries
have been doped by diffusing Ca from an overlayer. We find that undoped
MOD/RABiTS tapes have a less anisotropic in-plane field dependence than
PLD/IBAD tapes and that the uniformity of critical current as a function of
in-plane field angle is greater for MOD/RABiTS samples doped with Ca.EPSRC
