Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the title composition capable of continuously controlling its superconductivity transition temperature and also giving sharp superconductivity transition by mutually mixing each powder of Tl2O3, BaO, CaO, Y2O3 and CuO at specified ratio followed by press forming and then by heat treatment of the resulting form at specified temperature. CONSTITUTION:Each powder of Tl2O3, BaO, CaO, Y2O3 and CuO is weighed so as to result in a composition ratio of the formula (0.1<=x<=0.7) followed by mutual mixing. The resultant mixture is then put to press forming and then by heat treatment of the resulting form at 850-910 deg.C, thus obtaining the objective composition of the formula. This composition can continuously control its superconductivity transition temperature through controlling the x value and also gives sharp superconductivity transition; therefore, being suitable in the form of e.g., a thermosensor. Wrapping the press form with a gold leaf in sintering will further improve the superconducting characteristics of said composition.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The superconducting transition temperature Tc is unique to a substance and is always a nearly constant value when no magnetic field is applied. The superconducting transition temperature decreases because the volume fraction that transitions to superconductivity decreases and the transition slows down.If we can obtain a material whose total volume undergoes a sharp superconducting transition at a given temperature, This opens up many applications, including temperature sensors.

Table 1 shows the blending ratio and the proportion of the superconducting phase at the critical temperature of 4.2 at which the resistance becomes O. If the press-formed body is fired without being wrapped in gold foil, T1 disappears during firing, resulting in a compositional deviation and a slight decrease in volume fraction. Regarding the range of X, if X is less than 0.1, the superconducting properties hardly change, and this is inappropriate for the purpose of the present invention. Also, X is 0.7
If the temperature exceeds this temperature, superconductivity will not be exhibited from room temperature to 4.2K, which is not practical. Regarding the sintering temperature, if the temperature is lower than 850° C., the reaction does not proceed and excellent superconducting properties cannot be obtained. Also 9
When the temperature exceeds 10°C, decomposition occurs and the volume fraction decreases.
