Abstract:YBCO specimens along with different amounts of nano-sized Al 2 O 3 were prepared using solid state reaction method. The structural characterization of all samples has been carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. The XRD patterns with Rietveld refinement procedure was used to characterize the samples crystal microstructure. SEM analysis revels the phases with distribution of Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles along the YBCO grain boundaries systematically. Superconducting p… Show more
