Es. Reddy et al., X-ray diffraction study of texture in melt-processed Gd-123 as a function of 211 concentration, J MATER RES, 14(6), 1999, pp. 2394-2398
The texture in the melt-processed GdBCO superconductor is studied as a func
tion of Gd2BaCuO5 additions, using a texture goniometer. A systematic varia
tion observed in the background intensity is connected to the microstructur
al variations and the powder x-ray diffraction spectra.
