Crv. Rao et al., GROWTH OF CALNBACU3O7-DELTA (LN = LA, PR AND ND) SINGLE-CRYSTALS BY THE FLUX TECHNIQUE, Superconductor science and technology, 6(6), 1993, pp. 443-446
Single crystals of CaLnBaCu3O7-delta (Ln = La, Pr and Nd) were grown b
y the flux technique from a BaO-CuO eutectic melt. The morphological f
eatures of the grown crystals were studied using optical microscopy an
d SEM. Phase formation and single crystallinity were confirmed by x-ra
y diffraction studies. Superconductivity was characterized by four-pro
be electrical resistivity measurements.
