Abstract
The texturing process of Bi-Sr-Ca(Dy)-Cu-O (2212) is optimized by sint ering under a magnetic field. The precursor crystalline powder is melt ed and grown under a 1.2 T magnetic field. Textured samples are charac terized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electrical resistivity, and magnetic susceptibility. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
