Al2O3 additions for isothermal melt processing of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy

Abstract: It is shown that additions of Al2O3 (1.0 wt. %) can significantly aid in the isothermal melt processing of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy (Bi-2212). Al2O3 additions provide a means for grain refinement of phases present in the partial melt. By limiting grain growth in the partial melt, solidification to form Bi-2212 proceeds more efficiently, resulting in fewer secondary phases and improved transport properties. Aluminum does not substitute into the superconducting phase to any appreciable extent and is present in fully proces… Show more

“…11,194,195 Doping with alumina is often used to modify the properties of the generic superconducting system. In this connection, the effect of Al 2 O 3 on the superconducting transition temperatures of Bi2212 and (Bi,Pb)2223, 197 ± 199 on the ability of the phases in the generic system to undergo glass transitions, 200,201 on the microstructure of molten Bi2212, 197 on the mechanical properties of a (Bi,Pb)2223-based composite (see Ref. 198) and on the pinning force of the magnetic vortices in Bi2212 (see Refs 202 and 203) was studied.…”
