Study of CuO Nano-particles/CuTl-1223 Superconductor Composite

Zinc Nanoparticles at Intercrystallite Sites of (Cu0.5Tl0.5)Ba2Ca3Cu4O12−δSuperconductor

“…Improvement in had been observed after addition of Al 2 O 3 and NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles in (Bi, Pb)-2223 superconductors, which was attributed to these nanoparticles acting as effective pinning centers [11][12][13]. The enhancement in superconducting properties of CuTlbased family with the addition of CaO 2 , BaO, and CuO nanoparticles had been already reported [14,15].…”

CuO nanoleaf and β-cyclodextrin functionalized reduced graphene oxide: a highly selective and sensitive electrochemical sensor for the simultaneous detection of 2-chlorophenol and 2, 4-dichlorophenol

“…Among various metal oxide nanoparticles, CuO is the most exciting p-type semiconductor (band gap 1.2 eV) and is widely used as catalysts, 27 sensors, 28 field emission emitters, 29 and superconductors. 30 Besides the comparative cheapness, non-toxicity and simplicity of the synthesis of various morphologies, using CuO nanoparticles is an added advantage in several emerging fields.…”

Role of anti-ferromagnetic Cr nanoparticles in CuTl-1223 superconducting matrix

“…In literature, different techniques have been employed in this regard [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. But the inclusion of nanostructures of different elements and compounds of different sizes in bulk superconducting matrix is an efficient, cheap and easy technique [10]. The increase of critical current density (J c ) was attributed to improved inter-grains connectivity of the host bulk Bi-2223 superconducting matrix after the addition of Co 0.5 Ni 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 and Co 3 O 4 nanoparticles [11,12].…”
