Transport critical current density of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O/Ag superconductor tapes with addition of Fe3O4 as flux pinning center

This paper reports on the flux pinning capability of micron size Fe3O4 in Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconductor tapes. Ag sheathed high temperature superconductor tapes with starting compositions (Bi,Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 (2223) and(Bi,Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10-(Fe3O4)0.01 were fabricated using the powder in tube method.T...
