Preparation of YBa2Cu3O7-δ superconductor by sol-gel method and fiber drawing

  • 1. Kyoto Univ. (Japan). Inst. for Chemical Research

Description

This paper reports superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-δ ceramic pieces and fibers prepared through a sol-gel route from a metal acetate aqueous solution of controlled pH. Concentrating the starting solution by evaporating the solvent provided a transparent viscous sol, from which gel fibers could be drawn. Further concentrating of the viscous solution led to formation of gel pieces. Conversion of gel fibers and pieces to superconductors were investigated in terms of precipitating crystalline species and electrical conductivities
