Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) can be used to produce fully dense shapes of high-temperature ceramic superconductors. Densification modeling of monolithic YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ and the composite YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ /Ag systems allows an understanding of the HIP process and has led to the development of successful protocols for HIP of these materials. Ag metal is the best encapsulation material found for both systems. HIP of monolithic YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ requires a slow ramp of pressure in order to prevent decomposition into more basic oxides such as Y2 BaCuO5 and CuO. HIP of composite YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ /Ag requires careful powder processing to obtain dense material with a fine dispersion of Ag. 相似文献

Solid-state sintering was used to make YBa2 Cu3 O7−δ superconducting bulk materials. Corrosion of the YBa2 Cu3 O7−δ superconductor material was investigated in a humid environment. The superconducting materials exhibited significant corrosion after 4 h at 80° and 100% relative humidity. A grain-boundary phase was formed, and the percent superconducting phase in the material decreased by approximately 60%. The transition temperature (Tc ) decreased with corrosion time. After 2 h of corrosion, Tc decreased from 87 to 81 K. 相似文献

A new group of complex perovskites Ba2 REHfO5.5 (where RE = La, Pr, Nd, and Eu) has been synthesized and sintered as single-phase materials with high sintered density and stability using a solid-state reaction method for the first time. The structure of Ba2 REHfO5.5 has been studied by X-ray diffactometry (XRD) and all of the perovskites are isostructural and have a cubic structure. The dielectric constant and loss factor values of these materials are in a range suitable for their use as substrates for YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta superconductors. XRD and resistivity measurements show that there is no detectable reaction between YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta and Ba2 REHfO5.5 , even when the two substances are mixed thoroughly and sintered at 950°C for 15 h. The addition of Ba2 REHfO5.5 up to 20 vol% in YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta -Ba2 REHfO5.5 composite shows no detrimental effect on the superconducting transition temperature of YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta . Thick films of YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta fabricated on polycrystalline Ba2 REHfO5.5 substrate have a superconducting zero resistivity transition of 92 K, indicating the suitability of these new materials as substrates for YBa2 Cu3 O7-delta films. 相似文献

The present work describes a new technique to synthesize aligned YBa2 Cu3 O7- x and Ag─YBa2 Cu3 O7- x superconducting composites from Ba- and Cu-deficient compositions (relative to YBa2 Cu3 O7- x ) plus BaCuO2 . For YBa2 Cu3 O7- x , high transition temperature midpoint Tc (91 K), temperature of zero resistivity T 0 (90 K), and critical current density Jc (>3000 A°Cm−2 at 77 K) were achieved by using this technique. This procedure provides the potential for using a reliable and reproducible densification and alignment technique alternative to partial or full melting. The composite is highly aligned, with an average grain size of ∼1 to 2 mm and domains of width greater than 5 mm. The initial phase assemblage consists of YBa2 Cu3 O7- x (123) as the major phase plus YBa2 CuO5 (211) CuO as minor phases. The BaCuO2 is added to the Ba- and Cu-deficient starting composition in order to assist in the formation of a CuO-rich liquid as well as to compensate for the Ba and Cu deficiences in 123. Since the liquid forms at ∼900°C and is compatible with 123, it can be used to facilitate alignment of 123 at ∼930°C. The addition of Ag to the system results in eutectic formation with the (solidified) liquid, substantial filling of the pores during sintering, and improved alignment. 相似文献

The growth morphology of large YBa2 Cu3 O7−δ grains during peritectic solidification has been reported to be responsible for the generation of processing defects, such as platelets, and an inhomogeneous distribution of 211 particles, both of which influence significantly the superconducting properties of the fully processed material. The present study demonstrates both experimentally and theoretically the formation of local dendrites at macroscopically planar YBa2 Cu3 O7−δ growth fronts which propagate along different crystallographic directions and identifies these as key growth features of the peritectic solidification process. 相似文献

In the system Y-Ba-Cu-O, partial melting of peritectically decomposing YBa2 Cu3 O7- x (123) was used to produce a bulk material of high critical current density when the material was aligned. The liquid formation mechanism and its relation to reaction with alumina refractory was studied. A previously unreported phase of the approximate stoichiometric ratio Y:Ba:Cu:Al = 1:4:1:1 (YBa4 CuAlO8 ) was detected. The crystal structure was determined to be tetragonal, with lattice parameters a 0 = b 0 = 1.651 nm, c 0 = 1.793 nm. The 1411 phase bears a close structural relationship to BaCuO2 . 相似文献

Concurrent thermogravimetry (TG) and evolved-gas analysis (EGA) were done for YBa2 Cu3 O7-z and LaBa2 Cu3 -O7-z superconductors. The sample weights were monitored by thermobalance and the evolved O2 and CO2 species were monitored by quadruple mass spectrometer (QMS). No diffraction peak for the impurity phase containing a carbonate group was observed in the X-ray diffraction patterns for these samples, but the release of CO2 was detected by EGA. CO2 gas began to evolve from YBa2 Cu3 O7-z at 543°C and from LaBa2 Cu3 O7-z at 692°C. Preparation of high-quality YBa2 Cu3 O7-z and LaBa2 Cu3 O7-z superconductors is discussed on the basis of results of these thermal analyses. 相似文献

The high-T c superconducting material YBa2 Cu3 O7- x was synthesized using a modified amorphous citrate or oxalate process. Phase-pure superconducting powders were obtained by firing the citrate precursor to 900°C and the oxalate precursor to 950°C inflowing O2 . The preparation is highly reproducible and leads to powders with excellent homogeneity and sinterability. The resulting material was examined by transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetry, and X-ray diffraction. Particle sizes for the superconductors obtained varied from 75 to 3300 Å (7.5 to 330 nm). 相似文献

The response of ceramic superconductors and ceramic composites to compressive stresses at high temperatures has been examined. Monolithic YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ and composite YBa2 Cu3 O7 -δ6 /Ag were tested at constant true strain rates from 10-6 to 10-3 s-1 at temperatures from 800° to 950°C. Fine-grained monolithic YBa2 Cu3 O7-δ appears to have a regime of superplastic deformation between temperatures of 850° and 950°C at strain rates from 10-6 to 10-4 S-1 . The addition of 20 vol% Ag to a coarser-grained material enhances the ductility of the ceramic and lowers the flow stress by a factor of 3 to 10. However, there is no evidence of superplasticity in the composite material in the range of temperature and strain rate where it was tested. 相似文献

A slurry containing YBa2 Cu3 O7− x particles and a fine YBa2 Cu3 (OH) x colloid solution was prepared, and a large-scale bulk YBa2 Cu3 O7− x superconductor (about 50 mm × 35 mm × 2 mm) was produced by plastic forming without high-pressure molding. The samples molded from the slurry were dried and then fired at 1223 K in air. X-ray diffraction data indicated that the samples had the characteristic orthorhombic YBa2 Cu3 O7− x structure. Measurements of electrical resistance were carried out between 300 and 50 K by the standard four-probe DC electrical measurement. The samples began superconducting at an onset temperature around 92 K, and the full-transition temperature (critical temperature) ( T c ) was 88.7±1.4 K. The critical current density ( J c ) measured at 77 K was about 440 A/cm2 , the value of J c was improved by the heat treatment under an oxygen atmosphere, and J c =1.6 × 103 A/cm2 was observed. Under the magnetic field (B=1 T), the sample held its superconductivity, and demonstrated that this method can be used to produce the magnetic shielding used in magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis. 相似文献

The (YBa2 Cu3 )1−x Nax O7–δ system in the range of x = 0–0.8 was investigated. Experimental data suggest that the sodium doping with x 0.26 does not affect the critical transition temperature Tc , and the crystal structure maintains the orthorhombic lattice with a slightly smaller unit cell. However, sodium doping increases the sintering and grain growth kinetics, resulting in a higher superconducting phase volume and an enhanced Meissner effect. It also lowers the processing temperaturel. The experimental data also suggest that the sodium atoms diffuse into the superconducting YBa2 Cu3 O7−δ crystallites, which stabilizes the orthorhombic phase. The transition temperature (ortho-rhombic to tetragonal) in sodium-doped materials increases with the increasing concentration of sodium. 相似文献

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and optical diffractograms have revealed that chemically vapor deposited films of superconducting YBa2 Cu3 O x react to form an interaction layer with single-crystal yttriastabilized zirconia. The approximately 5 nm thick interlayer was identified as BaZrO3 . Zirconium was also found to diffuse through the entire YBa2 Cu3 O x film. 相似文献

Textured thick films of superconducting YBa2 Cu3 O7−x (YBCO) have been prepared on ceramic substrates using a traveling reaction zone method. The technique utilizes the rapid reaction between Y2 Cu2 O5 and BaCuO2 to form YBCO as the film passes through a steep temperature gradient furnance. The films consist of a single continuous superconducting phase with strong c -axis orientation normal to the translation direction of the film. 相似文献

Fine, homogeneous, dual-phase Ag–YBa2 Cu3 O7– x composite powders were prepared by a simple colloidal sol–gel coprecipitation technique that was previously used for synthesis of single-phase YBa2 Cu3 O7– x . Samples containing up to 60 wt% silver were synthesized. Silver neither reacted with nor degraded the YBa2 Cu3 O7– x . The presence of silver was found to aid the oxygenation of the precursor during calcination to form orthorhombic YBa2 Cu3 O7– x . Measurements made by ac magnetic susceptibility showed no significant degradation in transition temperature for samples containing up to 40 wt% silver. 相似文献

The rates of forming the superconducting YBa2 Cu3 Ox phase during the calcination of the Y2 O3 , BaCO3 , and CuO powder mixture at 790° and 850°C are considerably enhanced when an inert atmosphere of N2 or He is used instead of O2 . Sintering in an inert atmosphere also produces higher density and larger grain size than in O2 . These results are consistent with the possibility of rapid atomic diffusion in tetragonal YBa2 Cu3 Ox due to either high oxygen vacancy concentration or expanded lattice in an inert atmosphere. 相似文献

The presence of rigid inclusions in a powder compact leads to a reduction in the densification rate of the compact and may also lead to processing defects. In this paper, the densification rate and the constitutive parameters of both homogeneous YBa2 Cu3 O6+ x and composite powder compacts (YBa2 Cu3 O6+ x powder with 10 vol% dense inclusions of YBa2 Cu3 O6+ x ) are reported. A small amount of liquid phase, which formed during sintering, was present in the samples. However, even with the presence of a liquid phase, the addition of inclusions still reduces the densification rate of the composite and increases its viscosity. The results have been compared with a published analysis of the problem using measured values of the constitutive parameters. Both the viscosity and viscous Poisson's ratio of the porous body have been measured. 相似文献

Sheathed high- T c superconducting ceramic wire composites have been fabricated by wire drawing. Superconducting powders of YBa2 Cu3 O7-x (Y-123) and Bi4 (Sr, Ca)6 Cu4 O16+x (Bi-464) have both been prepared and successfully fabricated into continuous wire form. Under certain circumstances, a displacement reaction occurs at the interface between the ceramic superconductor and the containment tube; the nature of this displacement reaction and its prevention are discussed. Microcracking of the ceramic core is attributable predominantly to relative shrinkage effects during sintering. Failure of the metal wall during wire fabrication is attributed to drawing conditions and the mechanical properties of core and cladding. 相似文献

The ab initio pseudofunction method has been used to compute electronic properties of superconductors in good agreement with experiment. La2 CuO4 and CuO are computed to be antiferromagnetic and semiconducting in agreement with experiment. The 0.4-eV peak in the optical conductivity spectrum has been shown to be an interband transition for YBa2 Cu3 O7 . The bands for Bi2 Sr2 CaCu2 O8 as well as YBa2 Cu3 O7 agree well with angle-resolved photoemission near E f . The shake-up peaks near 9 and 12 eV observed in photoemissio can be understood in terms of two-electron processes envolving the local densities of states of Cu and O. A mechanism for superconductivity based on these electronic properties will be advanced. All calculations use local density potentials with no parameters. 相似文献

X-ray diffraction patterns show that most samples of Y1-x Prx Ba2 Cu4 O8 examined in the present study contained a single YBa2 Cu4 O8 (1-2-4) superconductive phase for x<0.7.Lattice parameters a and b increased with Pr concentration, suggesting that most of the Pr is trivalent in Y1-x Prx- Ba2 Cu4 O8 . The zero-resistance temperature, T co , decreases monotonically from 80 K at x=0 to 12 K at x=0.65, and superconducting transition widths tend to broaden for x>0. The room-temperature resistivity changes linearly until x=0.7 and increases abruptly at x=-0.75. The critical concentration, xcr , thus was estimated to be 0.7. The effective magnetic moments of Pr in Y 1-x Prx Ba2 Cu4 O8 were 3.63., 3.35, and 3.23, μB for x=0.2, 0.4 and 0.6, respectively. In the R0.8 Pr0.2 Ba2 Cu4 O8 system, the depression of Tc weakly depends on the ionic radius of rare-earth elements. Similarities and differences between Y 1-x Prx Ba2 Cu4 O8 and Y1-x Prx- Ba2 Cu3 O7-y also were noted and are discussed in this paper. 相似文献
