Effect of W-addition on pinning property of MgB2

Preparation and characterisation of Os doped MgB 2

“…For this reason, research activities are ongoing to find other potential options for enhancing the flux pinning strength of MgB 2 like for example dual doping on both B and Mg sites. Except for the case of Al that can be substituted for Mg up to at least 40% [12][13][14][15], doping on the Mg sites is usually limited to few atomic percent or even less [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. Among the transition metal elements, only few results have been published on the possibility of substituting platinum group metal elements in MgB 2 .…”

Vacancy Induced Ferromagnetism of MgO in MgB₂ Superconductor

“…The efficiency of small addition of metallic elements was also confirmed for sintered MgB 2 under high pressure of 3.5 GPa [5], and SiC/ MgB 2 system [6]. It was also found that the addition of 4d and 5d transition elements of Mo, W and Re also enhanced the pinning property of MgB 2 [7][8][9].…”

Effects of Re Addition into MgB₂ Superconductor

“…The efficiency of small addition of metallic elements was also confirmed for sintered MgB 2 under high pressure of 3.5 GPa [5], and SiC/MgB 2 system [6]. Recently, it was found that the addition of 4 d and 5d transition elements of Mo and W also enhanced the pinning property of MgB 2 [7,8].…”
