Bi-2212 superconducting single crystals were grown by the travelling solvent floating zone
method at different oxygen ambient pressures. Electron probe micro-analysis showed a …

This paper presents a convenient polymer matrix synthesis route based on the use of metal
acetates, which yields Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+ δ (2212 phase) with a Tc higher than 93 K, in air …

Systematic variation of the oxygen concentration proved that oxygen vacancies in the CuO2
planes are indeed the predominant pinning centers in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+ δ (Bi-2212) single …

The effects of the Yb substitution on the magnetic properties of Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 1 Cu 2 O 8+ δ
single crystals have been investigated and compared to those of the Pb substitution. Each …

The weight change of Bi-2212 single-crystalline samples as a function of temperature, time
and surrounding atmosphere was investigated by a classical thermogravimetric technique …

Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+ δ (Bi2212) superconducting thin films were prepared by the Pechini sol–
gel method using nitrates as reactants. The precursor sol was deposited on LaAlO3 (100) …

Abstract Thick Ag/(Bi, Pb) Sr Ca Cu O (BSCCO) composite fibres grown by the laser
floating zone method have been studied using electron microscopy techniques (scanning …

The oxygen content in Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 1 Cu 2 O 8+ δ and Bi 2 Sr 2 Cu 3 O 10+ δ
superconductor samples is determined using a iodometric titration technique and using a …

A change of the intrinsic pinning strength by elongation of the c‐cell dimension in
Bi2Sr2CaCu2O x whiskers of single crystals has been studied by magnetic relaxation and …

An electron microscopy study is performed on Ti doped Bi-2212 single crystals. High
resolution electron microscopy reveals that the Ti doping leads to incorporation of (010) …
