Precursor Powders

The influence of Sm addition on the microstructure and superconducting properties of Y-Ba-Cu-O (YBCO) bulk superconductors has been studied. Precursor powders YBa2Cu3O7-δ (Y-123), Y2O3 and CeO2 were enriched with different amounts of SmBa2Cu3Oy (Sm-123) or Sm2O3 powders with the aim to increase critical current density, Jc,by introducing additional pinning centers. YBCO bulk superconductors with SmBa2Cu3Oy (Y123-Sm) or Sm2O3 (Y123-SmO) powder addition were prepared by the optimized top seeded melt growth process in the form of single grains. Microstructure analysis revealed that Sm2O3 addition leads to a higher amount of smaller Y2BaCuO5 (Y-211) particles, what is related to high critical current densities (Jc ~ 7 x 104 A/cm2) of the YBCO samples with Sm2O3 addition in low magnetic fields. The effect of Sm addition in the form of SmBa2Cu3Oy as well as Sm2O3 powder on Y2BaCuO5 particle size, critical temperature, Tc, and critical current density, Jc, is reported.

ABSTRACTThe recent discovery of the YBa2Cu3O7-δ type high Tc superconductors stimulated worldwide R&D interest in this field. However, the relatively low critical current density (Jc) in the polycrystalline, bulk superconductors (as well as its significant deterioration in weak magnetic fields) has been a major roadblock to the rapid technical advancement toward applications. In this paper, we investigated the effect of processing and microstructural control on Jc of the superconductor. Improved Jc values of -3100 A/cm2 at 77K with somewhat reduced field dependence have been obtained through appropriate microstructural modifications.
