Transport and magnetization critical current densities in TlBa{sub 2}Ca{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub x} tapes [electronic resource]

The powder in tube process was used to produce silver-sheathed tapes of TlBa₂Ca₂Cu₃O{sub 8+x} (Tl-1223). The powder was produced by thalliating a precursor powder mixture to produce the Tl-2223 phase and then beating to drive off excess Tl and reach the Tl-1223 stoichiometry. The tapes were rolled a...

Description
Summary:The powder in tube process was used to produce silver-sheathed tapes of TlBa₂Ca₂Cu₃O{sub 8+x} (Tl-1223). The powder was produced by thalliating a precursor powder mixture to produce the Tl-2223 phase and then beating to drive off excess Tl and reach the Tl-1223 stoichiometry. The tapes were rolled and pressed, each step followed with a 3 h sintering. The 200 μm thick tapes show little sign of texturing; however, the critical current shows a small (∼50%) dependence on the direction of the applied magnetic field. Both transport and magnetization measurents indicate relatively strong pinning at high temperatures. The 75 K self field critical current density is 62 MA/m². Transport measurements reveal the presence of weak links at all temperatures, but with a relatively weak field dependence above ≈0.1T.
