Superconducting Nd‐Ce‐Cu‐O thin films were epitaxially grown on SrTiO3  (100) by activated reactive evaporation. As‐grown films showed the metallic temperature dependence of the resistivity and superconducting transition at 12.5 K (R=0). The remarkable parallel shift of the onset temperature of the resistive transition in the magnetic fields was observed. Ginzburg–Landau coherence lengths along the c axis and in the basal plane are 7 and 96 Å, respectively.
