Zt. Wang et Yw. Ma, A STUDY OF MICROSTRUCTURAL VARIATIONS IN BSCCO AG-CLAD TAPES AND A METHOD TO IMPROVE GRAIN ALIGNMENT, Journal of superconductivity, 10(3), 1997, pp. 247-250
The microstructural variations in BSCCO Ag-clad tapes obtained by a co
nventional fabrication procedure were studied by SEM and microhardness
tester. A method to improve grain alignment in the tape by treatment
of the magnetic field with mechanical vibration was developed and inve
stigated.
