Preparation of YBa2Cu3O7-y Superconductor Using Melt Method
Sang Heon Lee
J Electr Electron Mater 2022;35(6):622-625.   Published online November 1, 2022

YBa2Cu3O7-y bulk as a high temperature oxide superconducting conductor has the high critical temperature of 92 K. YBa2Cu3O7-y bulk superconductors have been fabricated by a seeded melting growth. Magnetic properties were studied by using superconductor of melted YBa2Cu3O7-y oxides. It was demonstrated that Y2BaCuO5 particles acts as a pinning center which plays an important role on the magnetic properties. The thickness of the upper and lower pellets of the YBa2Cu3O7-y bulk was formed at 40 mm with 55 g of the composition, and the YBa2Cu3O7-y superconductor was manufactured through a heat treatment process. Manufacturing the superconducting bulk, it is possible to improve the pore density of the superconducting bulk by providing a path through which oxygen could be emitted.

Fabrication of Bulk High-Tc Superconductor
Sang Heon Lee
J Electr Electron Mater 2021;34(5):333-336.   Published online September 1, 2021
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2021.34.5.9
Oxide YBCO bulk superconductors are manufactured using the melt process. Because seed crystal growth method utilizes a slow-spreading layer-by-layer reaction, a long-term heat treatment is required to manufacture a single-crystal specimen of several cm. In this study, the melt process method was applied to compensate for the shortcomings of the seed crystal growth method. The thickness of the upper and lower pellets of the YBCO bulk was molded to 40 mm, and YBCO superconductor was produced by heat treatment. The measurement results of capture magnetism was in line with the literature. This results in a relationship that the higher the growth of Y211 particle in the YBCO, the higher the superconducting properties. We analyzed the YBCO superconductor, focusing on the Y2BaCuO5 particle distribution.
