Effects of variation in copper content and pelletizing pressure on the superconducting properties of melt-quenched Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Can-1CunOy superconductor

The effects of varying the copper content and pelletizing pressure on the x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of superconducting Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Can-1CunOy ceramics are examined. The samples were fabricated via the melt quenched method. The copper content with n=3.5 revealed to have the highest percentage...

Description
Summary:The effects of varying the copper content and pelletizing pressure on the x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of superconducting Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Can-1CunOy ceramics are examined. The samples were fabricated via the melt quenched method. The copper content with n=3.5 revealed to have the highest percentage of high Tc peaks. The low Tc phase was predominant in all samples. There is no observable trend on the effect of variation in pelletizing pressure on both high Tc and low Tc phases of the samples.
