Abstract
Precursor filaments of Dy-Ba-Cu-O super-conductor were prepared by a solution spinning method and partially melting in an atmosphere gas with various oxygen concentrations. It was found that the transport Jc value at 77 K and 0 T of the filamentary sample was strongly dependent on the partial-melting temperature and gas atmosphere. The samples partially melted under flowing 1%O/sub 2/+Ar gas exhibited Jc values larger than 10/sup 4/ A/cm/sup 2/ over a wide temperature range of 980-1040/spl deg/C and a dense microstructure. The filamentary sample with the starting composition of Dy:Ba:Cu=1.18:2.12:3.09 treated at 1020/spl deg/C under flowing 1%O/sub 2/+Ar showed a transport Jc value greater than 4.3/spl times/10/sup 4/ A/cm/sup 2/ at 77 K and 0 T, and the Jc value of 2.0/spl times/10/sup 3/ A/cm/sup 2/ was maintained up to the magnetic fields of 14 T. The samples partially melted in 20%O/sub 2/+Ar gas and 100%O/sub 2/ gas showed relatively low Jc value of 6.0/spl times/10/sup 3/ A/cm/sup 2/ and 1.2/spl times/10/sup 2/ A/cm/sup 2/ at most.
