Abstract
Superconducting ribbons have been obtained by melt-spinning YNi2B2C of nominal stoichiometry. SQUID data show diamagnetic response with onse t temperatures 14.5 K and 14 K for the ingot and ribbons respectively. Hysteresis loop measurements display significantly weaker field depen dence of the critical current in the ribbon compared with that in the ingot. XRD analyses of ingots and ribbons suggest that in the ribbons the stoichiometric superconductors are embedded in a glassy matrix.
