High critical current densities were realized in cobalt-doped films on flexible metal substrates with biaxially textured MgO base-layers fabricated by an ion-beam assisted deposition technique. The films showed small in-plane crystalline misorientations of regardless of twice larger misorientations of the MgO base-layers , and exhibited high self-field up to at 2 K. These values are comparable to that on MgO single crystals and the highest among iron pnictide superconducting tapes and wires ever reported. High in-field suggests the existence of -axis correlated vortex pinning centers.
