Abstract
A typical grain boundary has been observed in the splat-quenched and a nnealed Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta phase by HRTEM and ED studies. It is close ly related to the modulated structure and identified as a mirror-trans lational (011) twin the angle theta=82-degrees between two [001] axes. Frequent occurrence of this twin interface manifests its low energy a nd may negatively affect the current-carrying capacity of the melt-pro cessed Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta material.
