Verfahren zur Herstellung von oxidischen Supraleitern des Typs Wismut.

摘要

A method of manufacturing a bismuth type oxide superconductor, wherein a molded body of a bismuth type oxide superconducting substance comprising bismuth, an alkaline earth metal, copper, and oxygen or a precursor thereof is subjected to a heat treatment for producing a superconducting phase and then subjected to one step selected from (1) a step of cooling the heated body from 700 DEG C to 200 DEG C in an atmosphere having an oxygen partial pressure of not less than 0.1 atm at a cooling rate of not less than 10 DEG C/min, (2) a step of cooling the heated body from 700 DEG C in an atmosphere having an oxygen partial pressure of less than 0.1 atm at a cooling rate of less than 10 DEG C/min, and (3) a step of cooling the heated body, and then performing a heat treatment for the cooled heated body in an atmosphere having an oxygen partial pressure of not more than 0.1 atm at a temperature from 700 DEG C to 200 DEG C.
