Recent advances in the processing of bulk, single grain (RE)BCO high temperature superconductors (HTS) fabricated by top seeded melt growth (TSMG) are described, including the refinement of (RE) 2 BaCuO 5 (RE-211) second phase inclusions in the bulk superconducting (RE)Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7Àd (RE-123) matri

Large single grains of Y-Ba-Cu-O (YBCO) bulk superconductor of up to 32 mm in diameter have been fabricated by a seeded infiltration and growth (IG) technique. Small Y 2 BaCuO 5 (Y-211) particles are observed in the seeded IG sample microstructure, albeit with a rather inhomogeneous distribution in
This paper describes the numerical and experimental superconducting levitation forces of a single-grained Y-Ba-Cu-0 bulk superconductor of approximately 48 mm in diameter. The experimental levitation forces were measured by changing the magnet radius systematically. It was found experimentally that
We fabricated c-axis oriented large grain (Sm,Eu,Gd)Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7Àd bulk superconductors with BaO 2 addition under 1% O 2 partial pressure in Ar. The experiment showed that BaO 2 addition significantly reduced a RE-Ba substitution, slightly hindered the coarsening of (Sm,Eu,Gd) 2 BaCuO 5 inclusion,
