YBCO/Ag bulk material by melt crystallization for cryomagnetic applications

Based on thermoanalytic investigations a melt crystallization process was developed with reduced process temperatures and process times to produce YBCO/Ag monoliths (d identical with 26 mm) achieving the homogenous distribution of small sized Ag inclusions. The mechanical properties are improved, bu...

Zusammenfassung:Based on thermoanalytic investigations a melt crystallization process was developed with reduced process temperatures and process times to produce YBCO/Ag monoliths (d identical with 26 mm) achieving the homogenous distribution of small sized Ag inclusions. The mechanical properties are improved, but the superconducting properties at 77 K, B sub(0) (480 mT) and F sub(N) (40 N) are slightly reduced compared with YBCO monoliths without an addition of Ag (750 mT and 65 N). The maximum trapped flux was increased to the value B sub(0) 9.4 T at 26.5 K, instead of 8.4 T in the Ag free bulk monolith.
