AbstractAbstract
[en] Solidification and subsequent annealing of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy (2212) in oxygen and argon atmospheres were investigated in order to identify alternative processing routes for controlling microstructures and superconducting properties. In addition to 2212, several other phases formed on cooling in O2 and did not disappear upon subsequent annealing. Crystallization in Ar resulted in a divorced eutetic structure of Bi2Sr3-xCaxOy and Cu2O/CuO. The superconductor was formed on subsequent anneals. Samples melted in Ar and then annealed generally possessed a more uniform microstructure compared with samples that were melted in oxygen and annealed. Compositional measurements of the 2212 phase suggest that CaO segregation in the melt may be minimized with an overall composition such as Bi2.15Sr2Ca0.85Cu2Oy
