In this research, the effect of addition of silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles on the improvement of the structural, superconductivity, magnetic, and flux pinning properties of high-temperature superconductor Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+θ (Bi-2223) was investigated. The Bi-2223 ceramic superconductor was prepared using the sol-gel method, and silicon carbide nanoparticles were modified by Azobisiso...

In this paper Sb2O3 nanoparticles are synthesized by solution method. The effect of these nanoparticles on the Bi-2223 superconductor properties has been investigated. The critical temperature, critical current density and activation energy were measured by the standard four-probe method. Magnetic properties of the samples were measured by using the AC magnetic susceptibility. The microstructur...

The Tera hertz radiation from a finite size superconductor media inside a magnetic field has been investigated. The tera hertz radiation is due to the flux flow motion inside the media. The electromagnetic fields inside the superconductor due to fluxons are calculated and using those fields, the radiation is obtained. In this research, the effects of finite size on the radiated power and signal...

The superconductivity and structural properties of the samples have been compared with the properties of a commercially availab...

The magnetization and the critical current density of newly discovered NdO0.82F0.18FeAs superconductor with a critical temperature, Tc,, of 51.5 K has been studied as a function of applied magnetic field and temperature. It was found that this compound exhibits a standard superconductivity with diamagnetic onset close to Tc at a very low applied magnetic field. It was shown that there was a str...
