Abstract
We have studied the fabrication of filamentary Nd123 superconductor with hi gh superconducting properties. The filamentary Nd123 precursor was prepared by the solution spinning method, through a homogeneous aqueous solution co ntaining mixed acetates of Nd, Ba, Cu, poly (vinyl alcohol) and organic aci ds. The filamentary sample was partially melted at 990 OC in flowing 0.1%O- 2+Ar and oxygenated under various conditions. The transport critical curren t density (J(c)) for the samples was examined in magnetic fields up to 9.5 T at 77 K. The highest J(c) value of 3.5x10(4) A/cm(2) at 77 K and 0 T and more than 10(4) A/cm2 at 77 K and at 2 T was achieved for the filamentary N d1.18Ba2.12Cu3.09Ox superconductor by controlling the oxygenation condition s.
