Ceramic fabrication technology for high-T/sub c/ materials

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7078850
Three basic processes are discussed for the fabrication of high T/sub c/ superconductors. Superconducting wires of YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7-x/ are fabricated by extrusion. Tape casting and thick film technology are utilized for the manufacture of YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7-x/ and silver composite structures. Grain orientation is observed for extruded and tape cast specimens, which is attributed to high shear stresses during plastic forming.
