Abstract
A vapor-solid reaction performed in a two-temperature zones reactor op erated at low pressure is demonstrated successfully to prepare Hg-1201 material of good superconducting properties as shown by the temperatu re dependence of resistivity and ZFC susceptibility. To investigate fu rther the connectivity of the material, we performed high sensitivity magnetization measurements at very low magnetic fields and temperature . A hysteretic behavior is observed due to an intergranular critical s tate regime. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
