A trapped field of 17.6 T in melt-processed, bulk Gd-Ba-Cu-O reinforced with shrink-fit steel
The ability of large-grain (RE)Ba2Cu3O7− δ ((RE)BCO; RE= rare earth) bulk superconductors to trap magnetic fields is determined by their critical current. With high trapped fields, however, bulk samples are subject to a relatively large Lorentz force, and their performance is limited primarily by their tensile strength. Consequently, sample reinforcement is the key to performance improvement in...
متن کاملProperties of Mg-doped Nd-Ba-Cu-O generic seed crystals for the top seeded melt growth of (RE)-Ba-Cu-O bulk superconductors
We have recently developed a new generic seed crystal that has been used successfully to fabricate any oriented, single grain (RE)-Ba-Cu-O bulk superconductor by a cold seeding technique. In this paper we report the chemical, structural and microstructural properties of these seed crystals, including the variation of melting point, crystallographic parameters and volume fraction of Mg-rich incl...
متن کاملSingle grain (LRE)-Ba-Cu-O superconductors fabricated by top seeded melt growth in air
We have recently reported a practical processing method for the fabrication in air of large, single grain (LRE)-Ba-Cu-O [where LRE = Nd, Sm, Eu and Gd] bulk superconductors that exhibit high Tc and high Jc. The process is based initially on the development of a new type of generic seed crystal that can promote effectively the epitaxial nucleation of any (RE)-Ba-Cu-O system and, secondly, by sup...
متن کاملPraseodymium valency from crystal structure in Pr-Ba-Cu-O and (Y-Pr)-Ba-Cu-O single crystals
2014 The substitution of Pr to Y leads to materials with a general formula (Y1-vPrv)(Ba2-x’Prx’)(Cu3-y~y)O6+x’/ 2-y+z and with a structural transition around x = v + x’ ~ 0.5. For x ~ 0.5 the crystals are orthorhombic, Y-Ba-Cu-O type, but with a lowered distortion. For v ~ 0.5 the crystals are tetragonal, La1.5Ba1.5Cu3O7 ± z type, with the characteristic tri-twinning of this phase. The Pr valen...
متن کاملComposition of Pulsed-Laser-Deposited Y-Ba-Cu-O and Ba-K-Bi-O Thin Films
The composition of pulsed-laser-deposited Y-Ba-Cu-O and Ba-K-Bi-O thin films is shown to be strongly affected by target conditioning, gas pressure, and targetsubstrate distance. For both compounds, ablation from a freshly sanded target surface results in films with an excess of the more volatile elements. The concentration of these volatile elements in the films decreases until the system reach...
