Growth of BCSCO single crystals by a slow-cooling flux method

Abstract

Single crystals of bismuth-calcium-strontium-copper-oxygen (BCSCO) were grown using a conventional slow-cooling flux method using KCl as a solvent. BCSCO single crystals having a surface area of about 10 mm{sup 2} were also grown by the slow-cooling method from a 4334 BCSCO melt. The composition of the thin plate-like BCSCO crystals was determined by electron beam X-ray microanalysis. Susceptibility measurements of the as-grown crystals showed the extrapolated T{sub c} at 87 K. Polycrystalline layers up to 16 {mu}m thickness deposited on GGG substrates from KCl flux showed superconductivity below 85 K. According to our results this flux can be used for epitaxial growth of BCSCO superconducturos. (orig.).
