The effect of bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) nanoparticles (~ 20�nm) on Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 (Bi-2223) superconductor was studied. Bi-2223 powders with starting formula Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3O10(BiFeO3)x for x = 0�0.20 wt.% were prepared using the co-precipitation method. The temperature dependent electric...
