Effect of Nanosized NiF2 Addition on the Transport Critical Current Density of Ag-Sheathed (Bi1.6Pb0.4)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 Superconductor Tapes

We report the effect of NiF2 (10 nm) additions on the transport critical current density, Jc of (Bi1.6Pb0.4)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10/Ag sheathed superconductor tapes. Pellets of (Bi1.6Pb0.4)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10(NiF2)x (x=0–0.05 wt.%) superconductor were prepared using the acetate coprecipitation method. The sample with...
