Abstract:High T c superconducting materials with chemical formula Gd 1-x Pr x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ , where x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 were prepared by ceramic route. XRD studies confirm the orthorhombic pervoskite structure. Electrical resistivity measurement shows that T c decreases with increasing Pr concentration. Copper valency and oxygen content decreasing with increasing Pr content. Value of n(CuO 2 ) decreases with increasing x and oxygen deficiency (δ) has a linear dependence with (2x+δ). SQUID investigation reveals … 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.
