High-Efficient Method for Introducing Nanometer Y2Ba 4 CuNbO x Flux Pinning Centers in Single-Domain YBa2Cu3O7−δ Bulk Superconductors by TSIG Process

Abstract: Single-domain YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−δ (YBCO) superconductors with different additions of Nb 2 O 5 have been fabricated by a modified top seeded infiltration growth (TSIG) process. The growth morphology, microstructure and levitation force were investigated in details. The experimental results reveal that Nb 2 O 5 can react with precursor powders in the TSIG process and finally form nanometer Y 2 Ba 4 CuNbO x (YNb2411) particles which can act as effective flux pinning centers. The content addition of Nb 2 O 5 has sens… Show more

“…As can be seen, the highest levitation force of the drilled SmBCO sample reached 66.3 N, and the density of the levitation force was close to 8.24 N/cm 2 . This result indicates that the drilled single domain SmBCO bulk superconductor had a slightly lower performance compared with the normal REBCO (RE = Y, Gd, and Sm) bulk superconductor fabricated at SNNU [24][25][26]. This may be because the sub-domain boundaries from the surface near the holes exist as the specific surface area increases.…”

“…The maximum trapped field of B=0.16 T was obtained in a bulk of 18 mm diameter with 0.4 mol% Fe-B alloys particles, which was 31% higher than that in undoped bulks. The addition of Gd 2 Ba 4 CuMO y (M=Zr, Mo, Fe, Nb, etc) [22][23][24] improves the performance of trapping fields of the bulks. Recrystallization of the fine inclusions was proposed by Li et al [25] in the bulk grown with BaTiO 3 particles, which decreases the pushing of Gd211 particles and forms in situ fine particles to produce a J C value of 52.5 kA cm −2 .…”

“…A solution to this problem is to increase the levitation force, which could permit to design guideways simpler than those used nowadays and as a consequence, to reduce the quantity of magnets required to build them. Various solutions have been investigated for this purpose [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. We mention especially hybrid levitation, which consists in the introduction below the vehicles of magnets in direct interaction with the guideway and has recently resulted in a 17% increase of the levitation force with respect to a classical set-up [22].…”
