Materials and Properties

Bi:2212; [Bi-Sr-Ca(Y)-Cu-O]
Material Specification for Bi:2212; [Bi-Sr-Ca(Y)-Cu-O] Process: Floating Zone
Notes: The authors cite J. Emmen et al., J. Crystal Growth, Vol. 118, 477 (1992), and summarize the procedure as follows. "Single crystals... have been prepared by the travelling solvent floating zone method. ... For Y substituted materials the final sintering temperature of the precursor bars was increased by about 2 °C for each percent Y because of the enhancement of the melting point. ... The chemical composition of the crystals (was) measured by the electron microprobe..."
