Mechanisms of the oxidation of metals and alloys with emphasis on superconductors

Technical Report · Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1991

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5027655· OSTI ID:5027655

Research work performed at M.I.T. under this contract has had two major thrusts. One thrust deals with the oxidation processing of, and phase transformations in, the Yb{sub n}Ba{sub 2n}Cu{sub 3n+n}O{sub x} (n = 1, 2, {infinity}) superconducting oxide system while the second thrust deals with the optimization of the properties of oxidation processed Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub y}/Ag superconducting microcomposites.
