In this study, two basic experimental processes, chemical vapor deposition and classical solid state reaction step, were used.

In this study, the CVD unit shown in Figura A in Ankara University Chemical Engineering Nanotechnology Laboratory was used. Amorphous boron powders were used as a source of acetylene hydrocarbon and carbon was added by CVD method for 90 minutes. Then, magnesium was added to the carbon doped amorphous boron powders at Gazi University Thermal Analysis Laboratory and mixed in an automatic mixer for 60 minutes. The powders were sintered under closed argon gas at determined temperatures and sample was obtained. Microhardness analyzes of the obtained samples were made. Figure A. CVD unit Purpose: In this study, it is aimed to improve the current mechanical properties of MgB2, which is used as a superconducting material, and to increase its usage area. Theory and Methods: MgB2, which shows superconductivity, has been produced with quite different production methods in order to improve its existing physical properties. One of them is to add different materials into the structure by adding. In this study, carbon was added to amorphous boron powders by CVD method. MgB2 was produced by mixing carbon-doped boron with magnesium classical solid-state reaction method. Vickers method was used for microhardness measurements. Results: While all of the samples show RISE behavior, contribution rate has been found to soften the material. Conclusion: As a result of the measurements, it was determined that the plane peak of MgB2 (1 0 1) in all samples was seen at 43,00 0 , the sharpest peak belonged to the C sample, the most successful approach in explaining the microhardness character of the samples was the Meyer Approach and IIC Approach.
