This paper describes our efforts to improve the preparation conditions of YBCO samples and increase their density by doping with Sn, F, or Ag and our analysis of the influence of different grain boundaries on superconducting current. We come to the conclusion that, as the grain boundaries have an insulation layer between them forming Josephson junctions and the metalled grain boundaries form proximity junctions which are kind of weak couplings for superconductors, the current-carrying capacity of samples having such grain boundaries cannot be expected to greatly increase. Only by increasing the density of samples and purifying the grain boundaries can a better percolation path for supercurrent be created, thereby considerably increasing the critical current density.

The transport critical current density of bulk sintered samples of RBa2Cu3O7−x with R=Y, Gd, Ho, and Er has been determined at 77 K from I–V curves at different applied dc-magnetic fields (0≤H≤20 Oe), also the ac-susceptibility as a function of ac-field amplitude has been measured with a superimposed dc-magnetic field from 0 to 30 Oe at 77 K. The transport and magnetic (inductive) critical current densities, are clearly larger in field cooled samples than in zero field cooled samples. Likewise, the degree of shielding as determined from the ac-susceptibility measurements is larger for field cooled samples than for zero field cooled. This anomalous behaviour can be explained in terms of the magnetic flux pinning present in the grains when the sample is field cooled, which leads to a decrease in the magnetic induction of the intergrain region and therefore to a higher intergranular critical current density compared to a zero field cooled sample.
