New nanoscale artificial pinning centres for NbTi superconductors

The efficiency of new artificial pinning centres have been investigated in NbTi using the oxide dispersion strengthening (ODS) concept more typically applied to steels and Ni-superalloys. NbTi alloys containing a dispersion of nanoscale Y2Ti2O7 particles have been successfully manufactured through a...
