β¦ Synopsis
Degradation
processes in 22 I2 thallium-based superconductors have been investigated using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy techniques. It has been shown that the formation of amorphous or microcrystalline material by decomposition of the superconducting phase is followed by the crystallization of BaCOs and other oxide compounds.
The influence of preexisting BaCO, on the rate of this degradation process has also been studied, and the results indicate that the removal of this stable precursor compound is an important step in improving the long term stability of the 22 12 phase.

We measure torque for fields slightly tilted out of the CuO planes and dete~-dne a temperature and field dependent angular range where the transverse component of the applied field is completely shielded. In this region the torque is reversible and relaxation of the magnetization is absent.
By analyzing the flux-line dynamics and the critical current density as a function of temperature and magnetic field in Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3010 single crystals, we have identified different pinning regimes. We have shown that the break in slope in the Jc vs. T curve at T=TCR may be caused by the crossover f
T12Ba2Ca2Cu3010 is a very stable superconducting compound with a transition temperature of 125 K. In applications requiring large size bulk superconductor, T12Ba2Ca2Cu3010 is one of the best candidates. We have developed a technique to make large uniform bulk superconductor with this material.
We report on the 2Β°5T1 NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra of the title compounds below and above the superconducting transition temperature TΒ’. The TIO layer NMR spectra are dominated by chemical shifts corresponding to TI 3+ with a smaller additional positive Knight shift, whereas a "defect l
