Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ /(Fe-Pd 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 %) superconductors are prepared at normal pressure by using three-step method. Alloy of Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ /(Fe-Pd 1 %) have shown maximum increase in the magnitude of superconductivity. Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ /(Fe-Pd 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 %) samples have shown T c (R = 0) around 106, 105.3, 102, and 100 K and the onset of diamagnetism around 113, 110, 102, and 105 K, respectively. A comparison of X-ray diffraction (XRD) scans of Fe-Pd nanoparticles with Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ /(Fe-Pd 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 %) superconducting samples have shown that the nanoparticles of Fe-Pd are quite stable in the matrix of Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ samples even after repeated firing at 890 • C. With increase addition of Fe-Pd nanoparticles, the axes length increases, showing some inclusion of nanoparticle into the unit cell of Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ samples from the termination ends of crystal. The inclusion of Fe-Pd in the superconducting Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ grains is also evidenced in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) absorption measurements. The Fe-Pd nanoparticles added in Cu 0.5 Tl 0.5 Ba 2 Ca 3 Cu 4 O 12−δ samples have been found to decrease the population of inter-grain voids that is found to increase the coherence length along the c-axis and the
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
