Abstract
Large domain YBCO are fabricated by using a melt processing technique for magnetic levitation applications. A Nd{sub 1+x}Ba{sub 2{minus}x}Cu{sub 3}O{sub y} seed is used to initiate grain growth and to control the orientation of YBCO grains. Samples as large as 2 inch have been fabricated by utilizing this method. Microstructural studies reveals two distinct regions in these levitators due to different growth mechanism along a/b and c axis. Some initial results on the mass production of these levitators are also reported.
