SUPERCONDUCTING PROPERTIES OF TITANIUM AND NICKEL SUBSTITUTED YBA2(CU3-YMY)O7-X

1991-08-31
The influence of substituting Ti and Ni for Cu on the superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3O7-x is reported. In the series YBa2(Cu3-yMy)O7-x where M = Ni and Ti, we changed y from 0.05 to 0.20. The temperature dependence of the resistivity indicated that all the samples were superconductors with Tc in the range 83 to 93 K for M = Ti. A second phase identified as BaTi4O9 was also observed. In addition, the orthorhombic-to-tetragonal transition temperature was found to decrease with increasing amounts of titanium. By contrast, Ni, which dissolves completely up to y = 0.20 caused a sharp decrease in Tc. All the results are discussed in the framework of 1D conduction mechanism theory.

ANOMALOUS AMPLITUDE DEPENDENT DISLOCATION DAMPING ASSOCIATED WITH ANHARMONIC OSCILLATIONS OF A COULOMBIC KINK CHAIN IN THE NONLINEAR DISSIPATIVE ATMOSPHERE OF IMPURITY ATOMS
OGURTANI, TO (Wiley, 1991-11-16)
The effects of the anharmonic interaction of the Coulombic kink chain on the strength and the position of the cold-work internal friction peaks associated with the nonlinearly power dissipating impurity atoms are investigated by a novel numerical simulation of the related discrete mathematical macro-model. The present macroscopic model of dislocation damping which relies heavily on the microscopic theory of kink-interstitial interactions shows very strong anomalous strain amplitude as well as the bias stres...
Nanoparticle self-assembly at the interface of liquid crystal droplets
Rahimi, Mohammad; Roberts, Tyler F; Armas-Pérez, Julio C; Wang, Xiaoguang; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Abbott, Nicholas L; de Pablo, Juan Jose (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015-04-28)
Nanoparticles adsorbed at the interface of nematic liquid crystals are known to form ordered structures whose morphology depends on the orientation of the underlying nematic field. The origin of such structures is believed to result from an interplay between the liquid crystal orientation at the particles' surface, the orientation at the liquid crystal's air interface, and the bulk elasticity of the underlying liquid crystal. In this work, we consider nanoparticle assembly at the interface of nematic drople...
Microstructural investigation of Cu2+ doped nanohydroxyapatites
Evis, Zafer (Informa UK Limited, 2010-05-01)
Pure and Cu2+ doped nanohydroxyapatites were synthesised by a precipitation method to investigate the effect of Cu2+ ions on the structure of hydroxyapatite (HA) and its thermal stability after the air sintering at 1100 degrees C. A small amount of CaO was observed in the Cu2+ doped HAs after the X-ray diffraction results. The addition of Cu2+ changed the hexagonal lattice parameters of the HA and resulted in smaller grain size after sintering at 1100 degrees C. The addition of Cu2+ ions into HA resulted in...

The finite mean‐free‐path correction to the Ziman formalism of the resistivity for liquid metals and some binary alloys are calculated using the Ferraz‐March approach.
CONDUCTING POLYMERS OF ANILINE .1. ELECTROCHEMICAL SYNTHESIS OF A CONDUCTING COMPOSITE
DOGAN, S; Akbulut, Ural; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1992-11-01)
We describe an electrochemical synthesis of a conducting composite of polyaniline. Poly(bisphenol A carbonate) was used as the insulating polymer matrix. Composite characterization was made using FT-IR, SEM and DSC data. The conductivities of the composites seemed to be in the order of pure polyaniline as prepared by the same method. Moreover, the above-mentioned methods reveal that the resultant composites have different properties compared to a simple mechanical mixture of the two polymers.
