Abstract
A kinetic study has been performed for the growth of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox (Bi -2212) superconducting whiskers. The length of the Bi-2212 whiskers is proportional to the square root of the growth time up to 500 h, indic ating that a diffusion process is the rate-determining step. This resu lt strongly supports the proposed mechanism of the Bi-2212 whiskers.
