The critical current density in melt-textured samples obtained by the powder melting process was determined from magnetization measurements. Linear dependence between the width of the hysteresis loop and sample size was observed for both unirradiated and irradiated samples. This indicates that the c

β¦ Synopsis
Transport critical currents of melt-processed (QMG) YBa2Cu3Ox bulk superconductors were measured by a d.c. four probe method. The QMC bulk specimens have high Jc characterisics of = 1 x 104 A cm-2 at 5 T for the magnetic field parallel to a-b plane. The angular dependence of Jo upon the direction of applied magnetic field showed some characteristic features which could not be described by simple flux pinning. This indicates that anisotropic pinning is relatively strong. The pinning caused by the layered structure, twin boundaries and oxygen deficiency, as well as pinning by the Y2BaCuOs phase, play important roles in determining the Jc of the QMG YBa2Cu30 x bulk superconductors.

Thermal analysis by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) has shown that melting of YBa2Cu30 x is completed at 1000-1010Β°C in a nitrogen atmosphere.
