Abstract
In situ observation of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox (Bi-2212) superconducting whisker growth has been performed. It is shown that the whiskers grow from th e bottom, which suggests not the vapor-liquid-solid or the spiral grow th mechanisms, but a self-top-seeding mechanism for the Bi-2212 whiske r growth.
