Description

High -T/sub c/ NB-Ga wires were prepared by a diffusion process. The Nb wires dip-coated with Ga were Joule-heated to high temperatures in a liquid He bath and then quenched by switching the current off. The highest onset transition temperature was 17.4 K. It was increased to 20.1 K by annealing for 24 h at 7000C. The midpoint temperature of the resistive transition was 19.8 K
