Title: Critical currents and weak links in melt textured R123

Conference ·
OSTI ID:755875

Weak link behavior is studied, using magnetization and Hall probe measurements of ring samples, in welded melt-textured R123 monoliths and in dual-seeded samples with disoriented domains. Techniques for welding samples yield transport currents across the junction that are in excess of 10{sup 4} A/cm{sup 2}.
