Abstract:High-temperature superconductors with a nominal composition Bi2-
xZrxPb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3Oy for (0≤x≤0.3) were prepared by solid-state reaction method. Effects of the Zr nanoparticles substitution at Bi sites have been studied to obtain the optimum concentration for the formation and stabilization of the superconducting samples. Electrical resistivity measurements of the samples showed that the higher critical temperature TC was found at 118 K, which is for the composition Bi1.95Zr0.05Pb0.4Sr2Ca2C… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
