  • Melt spun YbBa2Cu3Agx(x=0, 5, 12, 16 and 53) precursor alloy ribbons were oxidized at 263-330$^{\circ}C$ and treated at 820$^{\circ}C$, 855$^{\circ}C$ and 885$^{\circ}C$ under 1.0 atm oxygen pressure. In the ribbons treated at 820$^{\circ}C$, 855$^{\circ}C$and 885$^{\circ}C$ 1-2-4 phase (YbBa2Cu4O8) and 1-2-3 phase (YbBa2Cu3O{{{{ OMICRON _7-$\delta$ }})were formed respectively. The shape of 1-2-4 phase was distorted or ellipsoid. The 2-4-7 and 1-2-3 phases tooked the shape of bar. All the ribbons showed zero critical current density Jc at 77K in zero magnetic field. By considering the shape and the highest critical temperature (among the three phases) of the 1-2-3 phase we tried to increase the critical current density of the ribbons treated at 885$^{\circ}C$ by press deformation. About tenribbons were stacked and coupled by press deformation and then treated at 885$^{\circ}C$ These 1-2-3 phase did not show any texture in any of the ribbons. However they exhibited weak texture in the multilayered specimens. Among the multilayered specimens YbBa2Cu3Ag16 exhibited a Jc of 180 A/cm2 Among the above ribbons YbBa2Cu3Ag16 ribbon has the optimum composition to produce textured superconducting oxide with improved Jc by press deformation. Onset critical temperatures Ton of the multilayered YbBa2Cu3Agx(x=5, 12, 16 and 53) were measured as 88-90 K.

  • The superconducting properties of YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$$O_{7-x}$(YBaCuO) thin films prepared by laser ablation have been investigated. The x-ray diffraction patterns of the films were substantially different from one another. The Y and Ba oxides are formed by the collisions with oxygen molecules. On the other hand, the Cu oxide is mainly formed at initial stage of the laser irradiation. The YBaCuO films manufactured on MgO(100) substrate were indicated T$_{c}$(zero)=90 K, T$_{c}$(onset)=92 K, and J$_{c}$=3.5*10$^{5}$ A/cm$^{2}$(at 77.3K). The optimum conditions were found to be a substrate temperature of 710.deg. C, an energy density of 2 J/cm$^{2}$, and a target-substrate distance of 60mm in an oxygen partial pressure of 200 mTorr.0 mTorr.

  • The $CeO_2$-added Y-Ba-Cu-O oxides were prepared by the partial melt process involving the peritectic reaction, liquid + 2-1-1 phase ${\rightarrow}$ 1-2-3 phase, to investigate the effect of the dopant on microstructure and superconductivity. During the peritec reaction, all the added $CeO_2$ was converted to $BaCeO_3$ particles which were finely dispersed in large 1-2-3 grains. Superconducting transition temperature($T_{c}R=0$ point) of the partial-melted samples was as high as 90K regardless of $CeO_2$ content up to 5wt%, which is owing to the separation of the second phase from the 1-2-3 superconducting phase.

  • Relatively pure YBCO was first synthesized by heating a mixture of metal carbonates at temperatures between 1,000 and 1,300 K, resulting in the reaction: 4BaCO3+Y2(CO3)3+6CuCO3+(1/2-x)O2 → 2YBa2Cu3O7-x+1/3CO2. Modern syntheses of YBCO use the corresponding oxides and nitrates. The superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3O7-x are sensitive to the value of x, i.e., its oxygen content. Only those materials with 0≤x≤0.65 are superconducting below Tc, and when x ~ 0.07, the material superconducts at the highest temperature, i.e., 95 K, or in the highest magnetic fields, i.e., 120 T and 250 T when B is perpendicular and parallel to the CuO2 planes, respectively. In addition to being sensitive to the stoichiometry of oxygen, the properties of YBCO are influenced by the crystallization methods applied. YBCO is a crystalline material, and the best superconductive properties are obtained when crystal grain boundaries are aligned by careful control of annealing and quenching temperature rates. However, these alternative methods still require careful sintering to produce a quality product. New possibilities have arisen since the discovery of trifluoroacetic acid, a source of fluorine that prevents the formation of undesired barium carbonate (BaCO3). This route lowers the temperature necessary to obtain the correct phase at around 700℃. This, together with the lack of dependence on vacuum, makes this method a very promising way to achieve a scalable YBCO bulk.

  • 현재 시대에는 자원의 부족으로 인하여 원재료의 낮은 등급을 정제하는 것이 중요하다. 자기분리 기술이 산업 계 원재료들의 정제에 적용되는 것이 기대된다. 예를 들면 고순도의 유리나 절연체를 제작하기 위한 원재료에서 철산화물의 제거는 매우 중요하다. 자기를 띠는 입자들과 자기분리 필터 와이어 사이에 발생하는 끌어당기는 힘은 다른 자기분리와 비교 할 때 초전도 자기분리에서 훨씬 강하다. 초전도 마그네트를 이용하여 높은 자기장을 형성하기 때문에 일반 자기분리의 자성 입자 포획력을 능가한다. 본 연구에서는 습식 조건에서 산업계 원재료로부터 철계 산화물을 제거하기 위해서 초전도 자기문리를 사용하여 실험하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 유리원료로 사용되는 2종류로 시료A는 0.1 ~ 0.3 mm의 평균입도를 갖는 모래형상이며 시료B는 평균입도 0.03 ~ 0.1 mm의 고운모래 형태이다. 자기분리를 위해 상온에서 100 mm의 직경을 갖는 600 mm의 높이의 전도냉각형 Nb-Ti 초전도 마그네트를 사용하였으며 시료를 위에서 공급하고 아래로 배출되도록 수직형으로 설치하였다. 시료 500 g과 증류수 2 L를 혼합하여 교반시키고 6 T의 자기장 하에서 실험하였다. 자기분리 필터는 초전도 마그네트에서의 자기장의 분포를 해석하여 디자인하였다. 자기분리 필터의 자기적 특성을 알아보기 위해 진동시료형 자력계를 사용하였다. 산업계 원재료는 X선 형광분석기를 사용하여 성분을 분석하였다. 산업계 원재료를 이용하여 초전도 자기분리를 실시한 결과 철계 산화물은 시료A에서 43.5 %제거되었으며 시료B에서는 77.3%제거되었다.

They were pulverized, mixed with AgO, A $u_2$ $O_3$and MgO of 50 wt%. Finally, they were sintered at 820 to 85$0^{\circ}C$ in air. The structural characteristics, the microstructure of surface and the critical temperature with respect to the each samples were analyzed by XRD, $T_{c}$, SEM and EDS respectively. It was found that the the critical temperature of the silver oxide additive samples (99.58 K) is higher than those of gold or magnesium oxides additive samples, but all those values are lower than that of pure Bi-2223 phase. The microstructure of surface showed the tendency which the AgO additive samples become more minuteness than A $u_2$ $O_3$ and MgO additive samples.s.samples.s.

  • Melt spun YB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{15}$ and YbB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{x}$(x=5, 16 and 53) precursor alloy ribbons were oxidized at 263~322$^{\circ}C$, and heat-treated at 872~89$0^{\circ}C$ under 1.0atm oxygen pressure. In addition, about ten ribbons were stacked and coupled by pressing, and then followed the same heat treatment. YB $a_2$C $u_3$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$(1-2-3) or YbB $a_2$C $u_3$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$(1-2-3) phase was formed in both the ribbons and the multilayered specimens. The formed 1-2-3 phases were not texturized in all the ribbons, but slightly texturized in the multilayered specimens. $J_{c}$ was not achieved in all the ribbons at 77K and zero magnetic field. Among the multilayered specimens, YB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{15}$ and YbB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{16}$ showed $J_{c}$ of 260 and 180A/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. YB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{15}$ and YbB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{16}$ are considered to be the appropriate compositions in producing textured superconducting oxides with improved $J_{c}$ by pressing. Onset critical temperature ( $T_{on}$ ) of the multilayered YB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{15}$ was 92K while those of YbB $a_2$C $u_3$A $g_{x}$(x=5 , 16 and 53) were 88~90K. , 16 and 53) were 88~90K.
